Learning Different Alliance

About Us

The Learning Different Alliance supports neurodivergent students facing invisible challenges. Alarming stats on mental health, social bullying, and academic loss demand action. The Learning Different Alliance (LDA) launched in 2021 as a community education partner working together to inspire the success of all students. Following a rewarding 20-year business career that included producing speaking events worldwide to parents, teachers, and educators about proven learning strategies that transform learning struggles into learning successes, Ms. Cummings followed her dream of devoting her resources to transforming the American Public Education System. Ms. Cummings applied and was accepted into the prestigious, Teach for America program, earning her Master of Science in Education from John Hopkins University. Ms. Cummings' education was proceeded by four years working in the classroom before incorporating her business experience with her newly gained knowledge and insight to strategically launch The Learning Different Alliance.
