Arts Internship with the Akonadi Foundation

Noah worked on projects under social justice leader Lateefah Simon at the Akonadi Foundation, an organization committed to ending the criminalization of youth of color, grantmaking and investing in racial justice organizing and policy advocacy, and redesigning equitable systems. Noah incorporated his passion for the arts by contributing to Creatives in Place, a project through the Akonadi Foundation which supports community-based artistic leaders during times of pandemic-related gentrification and displacement as well as economic and racial disparity, to support them and uplift their voices to inform advocacy.
