Staff
Our Learning Centre (headquarters) is operated five days per week, by four full-time staff members. All staff members are Mexican nationals led by an Executive Director (ED). Staff identify community needs, develop and deliver programs, manage student selection and oversee engagement with students, families, schools, community partners and government authorities. The ED reports to the Board.
We rely on volunteers to teach classes, facilitate workshops and operate information booths at local organic markets, raise funds, and organize special events.
