About LEAD
Mission
LEAD (Leadership, Engagement, Action, Development) is a center for student leadership and campus activities. We support SF State students, faculty and staff by providing leadership development programs, student organization resources, and event coordination and consultation. LEAD facilitates transformative learning and student engagement, developing strong leaders and conscientious citizens within SF State's diverse community and beyond.
Purpose
LEAD is one of several departments within the Division of Student Affairs at San Francisco State University (SF State). Serving as the center of student organization activity, LEAD registers all SF State recognized student organizations. LEAD trains student leaders and advises students regarding event planning, University policy, fundraising, recruitment and retention of members. Through collaboration with various University departments and community programs, LEAD strives to best advocate for and assist students in achieving academic and co-curricular success. LEAD services and programs facilitate experiential learning and student empowerment, developing strong leaders and conscientious citizens within SF State’s diverse community.
