It is a joy being part of this community. I arrive here as an educator and founder of Kids for Coltrane. The Kids for Coltrane is a program that focuses on jazz to teach children about American history, equality, character education and the Arts. By doing this, children become invested in literacy, creativity, compassion, curiosity and courage. It is a program that celebrates the individual while also working in collaboration with others.
