LeadMN submitted a letter to conference committee members urging them to make college affordable, cover inflationary expenses at the community colleges, and support student basic needs.

LeadMN held is annual awards for 2020-21 to celebrate the work of students, faculty and college presidents for their work in supporting students in this very difficult year.

I would like to first thank you for including the mental health awareness program and funding, basic needs support, and funding for the hunger free campus in your omnibus bill. These issues were a top priority for our students and we are grateful for your support and willingness to work with and listen to our students to find solutions to the challenges we face.

Last week, Mameneh started as the Manager of Equity and Inclusion. Mameneh's role is to help build a culture of inclusion within LeadMN, help students develop cultural competency skills, and advance social change within higher education that addresses the opportunity gap in Minnesota.

Today’s anniversary is the perfect opportunity to recommit to the broader effort of engaging our young people for informed and authentic citizenship. Minnesota can and should lead the effort.
