The Community Working Group was an advisory panel put together of community members by University of Virginia President Jim Ryan to come up with ways for UVA to have a better relationship with Charlottesville and Albemarle County.

On February 25, 2019, the group released its report. [1]

In October 2019, the CWG became the President's Council on UVA-Community Partnerships. [2]
