The Vision
VisionLED LLC, Visionary Leaders in Education, is a BIPOC-led organization dedicated to building a world where youth and adults living or serving in marginalized communities can access holistic, high-quality learning experiences that prepare them for lifelong joy and success.
The Mission
VisionLED LLC empowers community-based organizations serving youth in Black and Brown communities and other student-centered organizations to create holistic learning environments through social and personal competencies, social-emotional learning, and social-emotional-academic development embedded with racial equity priorities. By providing essential tools, strategies, and resources, we help organizations develop a positive culture of belonging, enabling every youth to achieve their full potential.
The Services
We meet the needs of organizational leaders of youth-serving community-based organizations through organizational coaching and consulting, professional development, SEL curriculum development, and on-demand, self-paced professional learning experiences. Whether seeking a group experience with fellow organizational leaders or aiming to improve organizational practices, our services cater to the distinct needs of every youth-centered organization.
Our Core Beliefs
- We believe in the Holistic Development of Youth: Emphasizing social-emotional well-being and resilience in youth, particularly in marginalized communities, we believe focusing on holistic development is the catalyst for youth success.
- We believe in Collective Empowerment: We believe successful outcomes for youth begin with belief and vision, complemented by appropriate strategies and support for marginalized communities to thrive and contribute actively. As such, we are dedicated to empowering youth-serving organizations and providing the necessary tools and support for marginalized communities to flourish and actively contribute.
- We believe in Equity and Inclusion: Prioritizing equity and inclusion, we promote inclusive and equitable practices within youth-serving organizations so all adults are equipped with tools to empower marginalized communities, especially Black and Brown youth, to thrive and experience joy.
Our Founder
Melody Hawkins is an accomplished educator, author, consultant, SEL Ambassador, and visionary educational leader. As an Organizational Innovation doctoral student in the nation's top academic institution for Social-Emotional Learning and Whole Human Development, Melody is fueled by a commitment to address disparities in K-12 education. More than a decade ago, she pivoted her growing laboratory science career to become an eighth-grade science teacher in the heart of her city's urban community. In this role, she and her students accomplished much, including exceptional growth in their science state and local assessments and an opportunity to watch their student-designed experiment launch at the International Space Station and be tested by NASA scientists. Melody received accolades such as National University Teacher of the Year, inclusion in the prestigious 40 under 40 Most Influential People list, and special recognition from the city of Jackson, TN (her hometown) and the state of Tennessee while advancing to a leadership position as a High School Administrator. Now, as a Science Instructional Expert, Melody focuses on improving access to science education in her city's urban-based schools and embedding racial equity and social-emotional academic development into the culture of youth-serving community-based organizations.
