Scholarships! LeadLearnLive is actively seeking donations to help students offset the cost of attending Opportunity Orange Scholars at Oklahoma State University and RiverHawks Scholar Program at Northeastern State University!

See our first two scholarship recipients below!!

 
 
 

We partnered with Oklahoma State University to begin Opportunity Orange Scholars in 2022! Opportunity Orange Scholars is the second program that we were able to provide the start-up funding, program outline, and consulting for!

The program at Oklahoma State is for students who do not have the option of attending college in Oklahoma due to the supports they require. This second program will also follow best practice models in our nation and will be a two-year non-degree Certificate Program.


 
 
 

Lead Learn Live

Why we do

What we do!

Three bright, motivated students who dream of going to college in Oklahoma.  These are just three, of several hundred students that would love to have the choice for college. LeadLearnLive partnered with Northeastern State University in 2018 to begin the  RiverHawks Scholar Program, which was the first comprehensive, inclusive college program for students with intellectual or developmental disabilities (IDD) in Oklahoma!

In addition, LeadLearnLive partnered with Oklahoma State University to begin Opportunity Orange Scholars which began in 2022.

More options are needed!

By design, these programs only admit a small number of students in order to individualize the supports that each student needs to be successful. The demand for these programs far outpaces the capacity of programs currently available. LeadLearnLive has amazing funders that made possible the programs at NSU and OSU in Oklahoma. We would love to expand options into Community Colleges and Technology Centers!

The RiverHawks Scholar Program

AT Northeastern State University

 

The first program of it’s kind in Oklahoma!

LeadLearnLive and Northeastern State University began the FIRST inclusive post secondary program for students with intellectual or developmental disabilities in Oklahoma! 

NSU is an amazing university to work with and has a core team of leadership committed to making this first program a flagship program for our state!  LeadLearnLive supported laying a firm foundation for a program of excellence by bringing in national presenters from College of Charleston and Think College  - the national coordinating center for these programs - to lead an intensive training for core leadership. 

Join us in celebrating 6 years of educating, building support and forming relationships to make this program a reality for Oklahoma students!  We hope it is the first of many in our state!

College Path

Four-year, comprehensive, inclusive college programs are changing the outcome for these students, leading to 65% and above of the graduates being employed in competitive, integrated employment. Without these programs, only 29 -35% are employed when graduating from high school and going directly into the workforce. We don’t want that outcome for any of our Oklahoma students.  They deserve better!

LeadLearnLive is determined to provide college as an option in Oklahoma…. ultimately leading to greatly improved outcomes for these students!
 

 
 

Oklahoma State University is the location of Opportunity Orange Scholars, which began Fall 2022!
