Centers and Community Outreach
The Center for Continuing Studies provides dynamic educational experiences for adults, enabling them to think creatively, act knowledgeably, and live reflectively. The center offers continuing education classes, non-credit programs and workshops, conferences, lectures, and international travel and study.
The Center for Equitable and Effective Leadership is a network of diverse professional development leaders whose mission is to improve educational outcomes for all students by addressing systemic issues of educational inequity, implementing effective collaborative practices in schools, and creating culturally responsive and adaptive leadership. CEEL is committed to collaborating with educators, organizations and communities across Oregon to collectively meet the needs of Oregon’s children through strong, effective, and equity-focused leadership. In an increasingly multicultural and complex world, IWOK prepares native and non-native teachers, counselors and related community leaders for positive and informed leadership roles. IWOK empowers Tribal communities by providing educational experiences through a multicontextual process rooted in Indigenous worldviews.
The Northwest Writing Institute gathers a community of writers for reflective experiences in the practice of writing. The Institute offers courses for teachers and adult writers.
The Oregon Center for Inquiry and Social Innovation puts action to thought and thought to action. This center shapes questions, considerations, and dialogue that support thoughtful inquiry and innovative action for transforming social problems. The Oregon Writing Project is a collaboration program between Lewis & Clark and area schools, offering programs designed to improve the writing of Oregon's K-12 students and teachers. For over 20 years, OWP has been a vital resource for teachers who recognize the value of using writing as a means of thinking, exploring, and increasing academic achievement with students.
