How I Partner with Colleges & Universities

Real. Raw. Relevant.

​

Colleges and universities hire me when they want real, raw, and relevant workshops and trainings that don’t just check a box but they shift the culture.

 

I specialize in culturally responsive, trauma-informed, survivor-centered education designed with BIPOC students and underserved communities in mind.

​

Here’s how we can partner together:

Guest Lecture

Starting at $6,500
Bring Leah into your classroom, department event, or campus forum for a high-impact guest lecture rooted in storytelling, lived experience, and evidence-based practices. Perfect for Women’s History Month, Sexual Assault Awareness Month, orientation weeks, or specialized academic courses. Each lecture includes Q&A and can be tailored to align with your curriculum or campus priorities.

Single Workshop

Starting at $10,000
Facilitate powerful learning experiences with a 90-minute, trauma-informed and culturally relevant workshop led by Leah M. Forney. Designed for small or large group settings, each session includes interactive discussion, reflection activities, and a digital companion to continue the learning beyond the session.

Topics may include:

  • Culturally Informed Care

  • Trauma-Informed Advocacy

  •  Beyond the Field: The Role of Black Student Athletes in Ending Sexual Violence

Immersive Learning Experience

Starting at $15,000
For campuses ready to go deeper, this multi-session series offers 3 to 5 90-minute interactive workshops delivered over one day or multiple dates. Each session builds upon the last, combining community-building with practical tools and skill development. Participants will receive a digital companion to support implementation and reflection between sessions.
