Boston College. Center for Corporate Citizenship

 Organization

Historical Note

The Center for Corporate Citizenship was founded in 1985 as the Center for Corporate and Community Relations within the Boston College Graduate School of Social Work, following a series of professional institutes launched in 1983 for corporate community relations professionals. Its mission focused on advancing education and research in corporate social responsibility (CSR) and community engagement.

Renamed the Center for Corporate Citizenship in 1995 and later moved to the Carroll School of Management, it became one of the first university-based centers dedicated to corporate responsibility and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues. Today, it serves as a corporate membership organization of more than 400 companies and 10,000 professionals worldwide, combining the resources of an academic institution with a professional network. It supports companies in integrating social purpose with business performance through applied research, executive education, and peer learning. Its programs include research and regulatory bulletins, webinars on emerging ESG topics, a quarterly CSR magazine, and the annual Corporate Citizenship Conference.
