We launch our second season with actress, model, and disability activist Jillian Mercado in conversation with two of her mentors from National Dance Institute: Artistic Director Kay Gayner, who is responsible for the direction of NDI’s In-School Program, which currently serves approximately 6,500 children in New York City schools; and Agnes McConlogue Ferro, a pediatric clinical specialist in physical therapy who, with Ms. Gayner, co-created and co-directs the NDI DREAM Project (Dancers Realize Excellence through Arts and Movement): an inclusion-based movement program focusing on collaboration and participation.
