Tapping for Justice
While working for the Seattle Police Department, Melba Mitchell-Ayco wanted a way to give back to the city’s youth and close the gap for underserved communities.

Through tap dancing, Ayco aims to give young people a safe space for artistic expression while raising awareness for social issues.
