We are taking you \u201cBackstage\u201d at the Cultural Competence and Equity Coalition with a conversation curated to support our members in examining the traditional model of \u201cCommunity engagement\u201d and extending an invitation to explore more the possibilities of creating programs that truly serve. We enlisted the legendary Ruth Wiesen the Artistic Director of the Miami based Armour Dance Theatre (ADT) and has been a staple in the Miami Dance Community for decades. Wiesen and ADT have used dance a gateway to quality education and opportunities for the children who might not otherwise have access. ADT\u2019s programing is a byproduct of the needs identifying by the community itself, be it transportation, nutrition, or healthcare. For Wiesen and her team the words \u201cCommunity\u201d and Engagement are living and breathing ever evolving realities.
