Please view Kate Kelly's CBS 5 article and 3 minute & 25 sec news report above called "Judy Bretschneider: Teaching Children To Dance." Judy Bretscheider received the 2006 Jefferson Award from the American Institute for Public Service, presented by Sam Beard of Washington DC for her volunteer work with PPAF. The Jefferson Award is considered the Nobel Prize for Community Service, initiated by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. After extensive travel in Russia, Germany, France, and the United States, studying highly regarded performing arts programs, Judy co-founded the PPAF in 1998. She has designed the award-winning DANCE OUT! program, matching University of San Francisco performing arts and social justice students with professional artists, working together at underserved schools to teach and preserve cultural authenticity in dance productions.
