Our Mission:

The USA Dance College Network exists to empower college students to engage in dance as part of a life-long healthy lifestyle, as a means for positive social interaction, and for personal growth.

USA Dance. Inc., a charitable organization, is the official Recognized Sports Organization for Dance by the United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee (USOPC). USA Dance is also the U.S. National Member body of the world governing organization for ballroom dance, the World DanceSport Federation (WDSF), which is recognized as the official International Federation of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) responsible for all DanceSport disciplines.

How We Help:

1. We provide <resources>, education and mentorship to college teams, so they can grow, thrive and share the joys of dance.
2. Connect teams to each other, local teachers, and nearby USA Dance chapters, in order to support one another.
3. We organize the National Collegiate DanceSport Championships, the premier collegiate competitive event. We also sanction College Challenges and provide college-friendly opportunities to compete year round at our USA Dance Competitions.
4. Continue to provide opportunities to dance socially or competitively after college.
5. Establish lines of communication for collegiate dancers across the country and between collegiate dancers across the country to:
   1. Provide advice and guidance for solving your current challenges
   2. Inform you of special events, competitions, and other events
   3. Keep you up to date on news related to dance
