We are excited for our members to get to know one another. UAAD believes that our connections make us better at what we do and make our professional lives more fulfilling. Please join us January 20, 2021 from Noon to 1 p.m. Miki Montgomery will speak about about the programming that Malone Center is involved in and what individuals could do to make their own work areas/offices more welcoming to people of color.

Malone Center’s newest team member, Mismiki (Miki) Montgomery, is Director of Youth Programs. Mismiki has been working in the field of education for 27 years and has a broad range of experience teaching children from infancy through elementary school. Her most recent experience was coaching pre-service teachers as the Lecturer/Lead Teacher for Ruth Staples CDL in the Child, Youth and Family Studies Dept. at the University of NE-Lincoln. She is married to Vern Montgomery, and both are proud and busy parents of 4 boys. Mismiki’s passions have included writing and implementing curriculum on how to teach early nutrition intervention for families of young children, a focus on how to teach and implement mindfulness at a very early age, and (most recently) activist work for the Black Lives Matter movement by educating and empowering the community, public school teachers and youth of color on the importance of equity in the classroom.
