Does CTFD also offer services to choreographers and dance educators?
Choreographers and dance educators are part of our target community and can receive career counseling and all of our other services. However, professional work as a choreographer or educator does not count towards the eligibility requirements for our grants and scholarships. Primarily, our clients are performers because we do more focused outreach to that population. However, when we go to a school or company, we always distribute materials to the choreographers and educators, when possible. What do you envision as CTFD’s role in Chicago in the future? Are there areas of support CTFD is looking to expand? We are thrilled that Hubbard Street Dance Center has so graciously and generously donated our office within their complex so that CTFD has a home, as well as a huge presence, in not only the Greater Chicago area, but the entire Midwest (in addition to our offices in New York City and Los Angeles). Chicago has a very large dance population that is extremely conducive to dovetailing wit
