Core Values
Curiosity: Seek to understand one another and the world we live in.
Many young people with needs in contrast with the dominant culture have potential that goes untapped. MindCatcher cultivates professional development opportunities for educators to see differences as potential strengths in young people.
Calling: Manifest our gifts
We enable our educators to understand, amplify, and ignite youth voice so that young people become the masters of their learning experiences.
Connection: Build enduring relationships
Supportive relationships with adults drive learner achievement. Our engagements are designed to inspire, rejuvenate and support educators in creating the learning conditions that enable young people to thrive.

Our Approach
MindCatcher envisions a world where all young people are designers of their own future and all educators are equipped to support youth in their journey. Our mission is to disrupt the cycle of hopelessness in learning spaces by fostering the social-emotional growth and decision-making power of educators and youth of color.
Mindset Framework
Mindcatcher's approach is grounded in our Mindset Framework. We meet educators in their current context and work with them to dismantle limiting practices and embrace ones that cultivate the academic and life potential of young people.

Mindset Framework in Practice

Collective Support
MindCatcher facilitates cohort-based experiences tailored to the needs of education leaders of color. Collective Support, our systems, school and after-school site leader cohort experience, provides an affinity-based community for leaders to 1) unpack challenges, 2) investigate their thought-process and decision-making to co-design new ways of thinking and being and 3) create supportive and inclusive learning environments for their staff. |
Our Retreats & Workshops
MindCatcher designs retreats and workshops to help educators understand how their current practices derail them from achieving their desired academic and life outcomes for young people and adopt practices that better align them to their education and leadership values. |
