DCA also supports community partnerships through scholarship, service, and collaboration including volunteerism and philanthropic activities. DCA focuses on housing, health, education, employment and community with respective priorities within each focus area. Throughout this work Duke commits to anti-racism, health equity and engaged scholarship.
