Mission

The LEAD mission is to raise the education attainment level of all residents of the University's service region. In response to national, state, and regional concerns and legislation, through collaborative relationships, LEAD is implementing strategies to narrow the gap between work force needs and educational preparation.

Through collaboration with community colleges, high schools and community organizations, LEAD programs work to promote higher education among significantly underrepresented populations. LEAD also serves to facilitate the transfer or admissions of those prospective students into the University.
