All are Welcome

All are Welcome

Just a few years ago, DIA Schools Collaborative’s sole activity was an annual conference for Catholic school leaders, teachers and campus ministers.

To provide stronger connections beyond the conference, DIA shifted to a membership association in the fall of 2020. Now, more schools are involved and with greater frequency.

Through memberships, DIA emboldens the network of like-minded Catholic educational collaborators to foster ideas, discuss challenges, and find support. The growth and strength of passionately Catholic schools will be a critical lever for the future of the American Catholic Church.

DIA provides a framework for dioceses, schools, and leaders to work towards achieving this faith-first vision for Catholic education. Learn more in this informative video.

DIA member schools provide their entire team of administrators, educators and campus ministers access to DIA products and services. Consider the wide range of membership benefits for schools or dioceses, explained here.

DIA Fellows

Administrators, teachers and campus ministers who are deeply committed to bearing witness to their faith in their work for Catholic education and to strengthening the Catholic culture in their organization should apply to be a DIA Fellow.

DIA provides the structure and space for a year-long experience supporting and encouraging candidates to take their school or diocese to the next level, grow as a Catholic educator, and become a beacon of light for passionately Catholic education and the Catholic Church at-large.

Meet the 2022 DIA Fellows here!

Applications for 2024 Fellowships, the Fourth Cohort, are now open! Apply here. For inspiration, see past Fellows' project summaries.

Candidates who are deeply committed to bearing witness to their faith in their work for Catholic education and to strengthening the Catholic culture in their organization should apply.

The experience provides opportunities to:

  • Be inspired with the support of a mentor who assists you on your Fellowship project.

Fellows meet virtually once-a-month with their mentor and monthly with their cohort and the Fellowship facilitator. At the conclusion of the work, in October, they present results at the DIA Schools Summit.
