Community Coordinators are the paraprofessional undergraduate student staff who actively cultivate an environment that supports the safety, wellbeing, and sense of belonging for their residents. Community Coordinators do this under the supervision of and in partnership with the Office of Residential Life and in support of Brown University's mission, values, and initiatives. Community Coordinators work under the direct supervision of an Area Coordinator and other professional staff to create engaging and respectful residential environments that enhance the student experience.
