THE MISSION

Lead from the Front: A school program helping with mental health

For the past twelve years speaker and author, Cornell Thomas has traveled globally empowering students and educators alike with his inspiring keynotes and impactful programs.

The aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic has left students struggling to adjust back to a normal school environment. Now more than ever administrators and educators are looking for answers to combat the growing mental health concerns through our schools. There has been a dramatic rise in behavioral problems, disrespect, social awareness, and negative attitude amongst the student populations.

Lead From the Front was created to help students not only think and feel more positively about themselves but also their schools and community.
