Sabrina Klein is a theatre artist, educator, researcher and a mother (not necessarily in that order). All her life's training has brought her to the belief (for which she sees daily proof) that artists and art-making truly make the world a better place. Through her many roles--most recently as part time Executive Director of Teaching Artists Organized, and previously as Executive Director of the Julia Morgan Center for the Arts in Berkeley, theatre director, director of Kaiser Permanente's Educational Theatre Programs, writing and theater teacher at UC Berkeley and Harvard University, and as a teacher-educator bringing artists in to Bay Area classrooms since 2000--she has worked with partners to find ways to articulate the values that artists share with other artists, parents, business leaders, politicians, educators and other community members. She is committed to not-for-profit arts, education and services organizations and the government entities that serve them.
Sabrina has facilitated community conversations with over 50 nonprofit and education organizations, learning about what really matters to people in their work and helping them plan to act on those values in a meaningful and sustainable way.

∆ Mission
creative education consulting provides organizations that aim to make the world a better place an array of supports that enables them to:
articulate their values
act on them
and be more effective.
∆ Process – Creating Public Value and Making Action Plans
By speaking with passion and consistency of what we know to be true about the intrinsic and extrinsic value of the work of nonprofits and educational institutions, we can change the way society values our work as part of a thriving and sustainable community. Key policy and program leaders need to agree upon core shared language and learn to be comfortable telling their own stories about the critical need for the organization in order to position the value of any organization’s mission and its effective work. Klein’s work is to facilitate conversations with board, staff, faculty, community members and/or funders to articulate core values, define goals and strategies to achieve them, and inspire action in support of these values.
The language resulting from the Creating Public Value process forms the point of departure for community research and needs assessments, evaluation of existing models, development of new models, and the creation of a sustainable strategic plan for future action and potential growth.

The Arts Active Parents Belief Statement:
We are Arts Active Parents of Alameda County. We believe in a world where people can see and understand that creativity is the solution for problems. We believe that through creative collective problem-solving, we are influential in building a whole and vibrant society. We believe that life and participation in various endeavors is about taking risks and not always staying within the lines. We want our students to become whole, happy, empowered individuals, taking their place in an equitable society.
And we believe that equitable access to arts learning for ALL students in our County is an essential path to achieving this vision.We believe that Art IS Education. Arts learning honors the gifts that all children have and creates a stronger community. Arts learning brings us greater sensitivity to the needs of others and teaches us to offer our gifts in service to others while celebrating our own individuality and self-responsibility. Arts learning promotes interdependence, investigation, and curiosity.
The whole community benefits when our children grow to become conscious, informed, respectful, engaged, compassionate and happy adults.
