Welcome to your Change Lab dashboard — your central hub for civic tools, local impact, and connection. Whether you’re dipping your toe in or doubling down on change, this is the space to begin, grow, and organize your momentum.
Choose from four Engagement Levels that meet you where you are — from getting curious to organizing for impact. Explore eleven civic Pathways rooted in what matters: food, housing, justice, education, systems change, belonging, and more.
Use the Content Types to filter by what moves you: stories, events, toolkits, podcasts, books, partners, and more. The control panels on the sides help you navigate, explore, and plug in.

Why It Matters for Change Lab Audiences
Emotional & relational learning: Supports caregivers—parents, grandparents, teachers—in naming and navigating emotions with young children during transitional moments.
Applied civic culture: Rooted in emotions as play, this approach models inclusive, relationship-centered civic learning beginning in early childhood settings.
Intergenerational civic resilience: Equips adults with communication tools that foster belonging, empathy, and cross-generational understanding.
Bridging Divides Initiative (BDI)
In a fragmented civic landscape, BDI provides the infrastructure, intelligence, and insight that community leaders and bridge-builders need to act strategically and collaboratively. By surfacing real-time risks and spotlighting grassroots solutions, they empower organizations like The Change Lab to respond to division with clarity, care, and coordination.
