CPL has grown into a second home on campus for hundreds of HKS students passionate about cultivating their leadership abilities. More than 100 of these students are recipients of CPL fellowships, while over 90% of the HKS students body have enrolled in at least one of our in-depth, faculty-guided leadership development programs.
In addition to the Dubin Leadership Field Experience, CPL offers leadership development programs for HKS students including leadership development faculty-led workshops, leadership development cohort, and leadership development practitioner workshops. Details can be found here.

The Dubin Leadership Field Experience (DLFE) allows student leaders, under the guidance of a faculty adviser and the LD team, to plan a domestic student service trip to one of the 48 contiguous states. Typically held in the spring semester, the DLFE affords students the ability to immerse themselves in regional policy issues they are passionate about, expand their networks, and engage in experiential leadership development in service of the host city or region. Three pre-trip study group sessions are organized by the team to prepare them for their leadership field experience trips.
Recent DLFE trips concentrated on issues relating to education innovation reform in Memphis, Tennessee, inclusive metropolitan growth in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and organizing across differences in red states in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
The Dubin Leadership Field Experiences are generously supported by Glenn Dubin and the HKS Degree Programs/Student Affairs Office.
