Partner Spotlight:
Project Commotion
Commotion. Connection. Community.

Project Commotion’s mission is to foster healthy development in children of all abilities through purposeful movement, play, and family and community relationships. Founded by two female martial artists – one being Latina from Mexico – Project Commotion was created to address the lack of affordable, accessible creative spaces for children and families in the San Francisco Mission District.

Using a culturally-relevant curriculum, Project Commotion offers bilingual English/Spanish creative movement programming in dance, capoeira, and theater arts to children of all ages. Our relationship-based approach to the performing arts emphasizes social emotional learning, connection and holistic wellbeing.

These activities provide opportunities for socialization, exploration, and cognitive development, fostering confidence and positive relationship with physical activity – Early Childhood Educator

Community Building and Mobilization For All Families: A Pathway to Family Stability and Community Well-Being

This resource from Lutheran Services in America’s Family Stabilization Unit and Chapin Hall details learnings from the FSI Learning Collaborative—comprising six communities in four states— which launch, strengthen, and sustain evidence-based wraparound programs to support families in crisis. A main finding is that services to support families and prevent crises are often poorly coordinated, and too few resources, if any, are dedicated to building and sustaining a robust community network, particularly from the perspective of those impacted.
