Welcome to the Holyoke Bound Web Site! This web site aims to provide students and faculty with tools and skills helpful to enabling successful community-based learning in Holyoke, Massachusetts.

It is our hope that this site will provide access simultaneously to Holyoke's rich cultural and socioeconomic history, to current conditions and initiatives in the city, and to knowledge about many partnerships involving Holyoke community-based organizations, and area college and university students, faculty and staff in collaborative learning, research and service projects.
