Kortnee Quiza - Boys and Girls Clubs Chicago

“For me, I'm the most focused on how the kids will benefit at the end of the time that they're spending. And by the end of the sessions they've had with Creative Network, my kids are exuberant, and going home with this smile on their face. And there's just a certain joy that they have by being in a space with these dance teachers. As soon as one of their songs comes on, the kids come alive. CN programming really brings out the natural joy in the kids and allows them to be in a space that they naturally feel comfortable and accepted. The teaching artists are really there for them, as opposed to them just being told that they have to go into a room for programming because this is what their time says on a schedule. The kids naturally want to go. That's amazing.”
