York College CCE to have public hours beginning on Nov. 26

York College’s Center for Community Engagement (CCE), 59 E. Market St., will be open to the public throughout the day, due in part to the hiring of a senior administrative assistant, Karin Swartz.

Beginning on Nov. 26, the CCE will be open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Thursday year-round; Friday hours will be 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., September through April, and 9 to 11 a.m., May through August.

Extending access to the Center expands upon the history of the building as a place where leaders of York met to make plans to better the community, according to CCE Dean Dominic DelliCarpini. “We understand that with that history, many people were excluded from being part of those conversations,” he said. “Moving forward, we want to be a space for those conversations that is open to leaders of all groups and populations within the York community.”
