We’ll be visiting the NACA Inspired Schools Network (NISN) in Albuquerque, New Mexico as part of our Leadership Journey series. 

NISN is building a movement of students, families, and educators to create excellent schools relevant to the communities they serve. NISN works with fellows who are committed to Indigenous communities to establish schools in New Mexico and throughout the country that will create strong leaders who are academically prepared, secure in their identities, healthy, and ultimately transforming their communities.

You asked, we answered! 

Many in the 4DL community have been asking for opportunities to come together post-program to continue your journey as leaders of this work. This fall, whether you’re a 4DL alum or just want to more about our coalition of changemakers, join us for one or both sessions of Coalition Discourse! We’ll send you a short reading before each date and discuss it over brunch. Let’s stay inspired by what’s possible this year!

Where: Wilmington, DE 
When: Saturday 9/27 9am-11am and Saturday 11/8, 9am-11am

EPP is our 6-month program that equips teams of educators with the framework, language and confidence to successfully advance structural change efforts for the benefit of all children. EPP grounds participants in history-focused academic scholarship, while coaching them through a Direct Action Project at their district or school using a human-centered problem-solving approach.

The next cohort begins in January 2026. To learn more, click here. To get involved in the next cohort, send us a message on our contact page.
