LEAD Fund Authors’ presentations are intended to disseminate fresh ideas on methods to promote access, equity, and diversity in employment, education and business/contracting.

The Fund will pay an hourly rate for the editors. Papers are usually 20 – 25 pages and will include footnotes and bibliographies.

Editor Qualifications: An editor for the LEAD Fund Authors’ Program is a professional who is responsible for reviewing, revising, and improving student’s document before it is published by the Fund. The editor ensures that the document is correct as a matter of content and is grammatically and stylistically correct. The final product should also be of high quality. The editor works with the writers to improve their content to make sure it flows well and educates them regarding best practices in writing.
Once the editor has approved the document, the Fund and author will conduct a final review and then upload it on the Fund’s website, www.leadfund.org and other sites as desired. To view some of the LEAD Fund Authors’ papers, go to: https://www.leadfund.org/lead-fund-authors-and-fellows-program
The editor should have at least two years of experience editing a journal or publication using Chicago Style. Preference is given to those with experience editing documents related to diversity, civil rights, education or law. A sample of the applicants’ edited works is required as well as two references.
Please do not call to inquire about the status of the application. The hourly rate depends upon experience.
