Every community faces problems and the Dayton metro area is no different. LEAD works with community members to identify these problems research possible solutions, and build the people power need to make systemic change.

Education & Tutoring

Academic achievement in the Dayton Public Schools has been extremely low for a very long time. Over 2 years ago at LEAD’s Problems Assembly, our members voted to address this huge problem which negatively affects so many of our families.

The critical question is what needs to be done and what can we actually accomplish to make it happen?

Economic Development

Economic development has been a major LEAD concern for many years. In early 2014 we researched the problem and settled on a solution that could make a real difference in northwest Montgomery County.

In an effort to promote common ownership of productive assets that anchor capital and jobs locally, LEAD created the “Dayton Works Initiative.”

Let the People Ride Campaign

LEAD is pushing for improvements to the safety and accessibility of bus stops near the Dayton Mall.
After a successful campaign against the city of Beavercreek, LEAD is hoping to bring about change at the Dayton Mall as well.
