Help those impacted by recent wildfires

The fourth annual Cardinal at Work Cares: Giving Essentials Drive has expanded to provide personal care items, and new or gently used jackets and coats to the many Northern Californians impacted by the recent wildfires. Please get involved by donating needed items and placing them in one of the many collection boxes across campus, SLAC, and Stanford Redwood City. You can also donate personal care items online using our Cardinal at Work Cares wish list; our wish list vendor will send all orders in a single shipment, helping us reach our sustainability goals by significantly reducing cardboard and packaging. Team up with co-workers for bulk orders to help more of our neighbors!

Staff Engagement Survey Update

A staff survey was conducted during fall quarter of 2018 and results were shared broadly in Jan. 2019. Many schools and units have been working to understand the feedback, how they can preserve what is working well, and how they can improve. Schools and units will also continue to use the results to inform local decisions. Stay tuned for LRP updates to learn how the survey results have helped guide these university-wide initiatives.
