Elementary student participants in a 2009 Story-Quilting summer workshop

Khadijah Ali-Coleman, an Advancing Youth Development (AYD) facilitator,  provides workshops and consultant services to youth-serving organizations and events. Her expertise has been utilized by notable agencies including some of the clients below:

 

She began her foray into facilitation and youth development in the mid 1990’s while still in college, volunteering for organizations like the CHOICE program based in Baltimore, MD and traveling to different countries during her winter breaks  to work with elementary school-aged children, assisting teachers in classroom management and leading classroom instruction. Later, upon graduating from the University of Maryland, she engaged in community work as a family case manager with CHOICE and classroom teacher, later serving as the Assistant Director of a prominent international organization that provides services at-risk and runaway youth. Through these experiences, Khadijah has honed skills that are very valuable in her role as a consultant and trainer.

Participants in a session co-facilitated by Khadijah at the Children’s Defense Fund’s Ella Baker Policy Training Institute in June 2012. The training was on conflict resolution and creating peaceable communities within a learning environment.
