Together and by association, Brothers and Lasallians carry out the educational mission. Associative Groups are born out of this tenet, deriving skill and spirituality from one another to create educational communities to better serve their ministries and students. The Associative Groups are connected to and influence DENA through the Association for Lasallian Mission Committee.
