Erica Fields, Senior Director of Strategic Initiatives for Learn to Earn Dayton was named a Dayton Democracy Fellow by the Charles F. Kettering Foundation.
The one-year fellowship is designed to "support innovative leaders, changemakers, and dreamers who are building movements for inclusive democracy in their communities and in our wider world."
The recognition is a celebration of Fields's long tenure focusing on opportunities to strengthen civic engagement for the community. At Learn to Earn Dayton, Erica leads initiatives targeted in focused geographies where access to opportunity is limited and achievement gaps are the greatest, in partnership with districts, higher-education institutions, out-of-school providers, and student-centered community-based organizations.
Over the course of the next year, Fields will join with the current class of Dayton Democracy Fellows for networking, collaborative learning, and strategic planning. Join the Learn to Earn Dayton team in extending our congratulations to Erica Fields!
