We meet with Jan Michener, Founder and Executive Director of Arts Holding Hands & Hearts (AHHAH). Based in Kennett Square, AHHAH supports young people in under resourced communities across Chester County. The organizations runs a range of arts and literacy programs in communities, schools, and the youth detention center – all focused on enabling those young people to thrive, rather than merely service. With deep commitment to helping children read at grade level from an early age, Jan walks us through several of AHHAH’s program and initiatives.\nOUR PARTNER\nSouthern Chester County Chamber of Commerce\nLINKS\nArts Holding Hands and Hearts (AHHAH)Website: ahhah.orgInstagram: instagram.com/artsholdinghandsandheartsFacebook: facebook.com/ArtsHoldingHandsAndHeartsIncJan Michener on LinkedInAdditional LinksChester County FuturesKennett Ability Network (KAN)Good WorksCamp DreamcatcherKennett LibraryJustamere FoundationChester County Intermediate UnitChester County Youth CenterDolly Parton’s Imagination LibraryThe Alliance for Health EquityChester County Opportunities Industrialization Center (CCOIC)Other Interviews with Jan MichenerJan Michener on Great DamesJan Michener on The Art of Volunteering PodcastRelated EpisodesRepairing Homes and Building Relationships with Bob BeggsNurturing Belonging and Celebrating Community with Children Impacted by HIV/AIDS with Patty HillkirkBuilding Community and Capacity with Chris MannaTRANSCRIPT\nThe full transcript for this episode will be published on our website as soon as it is available.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/O3-LPjst6hNcGIRrftxR3k6QivI-cZMcu5DFE-qWCD4/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQwNDA4LzE2ODk4/ODgyNzItYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
