Cate Hart Hyatt

Cate Hart Hyatt has spent more than 30 years as an educator, teaching preschool through graduate school students. As a research associate for the Center on Education and Lifelong Learning at the Indiana Institute on Disability and Community at Indiana University, she has delivered a variety of effective professional development strategies, trainings, graduate courses, and onsite coaching to foster better collaboration and teaming as a vehicle to increase organizational and individual capacity in K–12 schools. Cate is also contracted by the Indiana Department of Education to provide technical assistance for Learn and Serve Indiana school districts.

Cate led Indiana’s efforts in VETS: Voicing Experiences Through Service, a multiyear, $1.3 million grant funded by the Corporation for National and Community Service. In partnership with colleagues in Maryland and Vermont, VETS expanded service opportunities as part of transition planning for youth with disabilities (ages 14–21) and increased their participation in service, specifically through the gathering of oral histories for the National Veteran’s History Project.

Cate earned a bachelor’s degree from Indiana State University and two master’s degrees from Indiana University.
