Jaeda Raines w/ The Sankofa Center For African Dance and Culture
The Sankofa Center for African Dance and Culture is a 501(c)3 non profit organization combining traditional African dance and music as a tool for HIV/AIDS education and community outreach. The Sankofa Center uses the dance and music of Africa's past to foster health and understanding of HIV/AIDS in the current generation in hopes of preventing the destruction of their future. The Sankofa Center's programming is two-fold: touring dance-dramas are aimed at educating margainalized villagers with little access to resources and information; and, after-school programs that target youth between the ages of 13-19+.
