The Los Angeles Arts Education Collective (LACAEC) , led by Program Manager Gregg Johnson who’s authored the strategy for that has help us recruit AT&T and other corporate partners who seek to develop a farm system for their pipelines. LACAEC is a force multiplier who has provided the standardization and increased awareness for developing a smart-pipeline and activation and engagement campaigns for all of the 84 school districts, 19 Community Colleges, and 10 four-year Universities in Los Angeles County.
Our goal is to prepare and place our home-grown talent in Los Angeles County, while providing a national model for other regional economies to adopt similar strategies. This partnership will allow us to create a think-tank that can distill the best practices of implementing policies, systems integration and adoption while allowing student innovation and inclusive voice to be seen, heard and nurtured along the way.
