About Lead by Learning:
Established in 2009, Lead by Learning is a community-facing, professional learning center of Mills College at Northeastern University. We significantly improve students' day-to-day learning experiences by building the capacity of those best positioned to understand and address students’ needs—the educators and leaders who work with them daily. Lead by Learning creates communities of adult learners who advance educational equity by collaboratively focusing on learners’ experiences and assessing impact to adapt to students' immediate needs. Our approach integrates community organizing principles with action-based inquiry, positioning educators as critical drivers of continuous improvement. By fostering curiosity, enhancing collective teacher efficacy, and developing adaptive expertise, we aim to disrupt unjust practices and drive meaningful change.
