    Kamm Galloway

    Ms. Rolawnza Galloway believed there was another means to address youth delinquency besides detention admissions and incarceration for young adults. At the age of 9, Ms. Galloway realized she wanted to work with children and began practicing at home being a teacher to become a teacher. By age 12 she began working with children in her family. At age 14, she peer-mentored and volunteered in the nursery at her local high school, Independence High School in Winston-Salem, NC.  She attained her GED to continue her schooling receiving an AAS in Accounting and later an AAS in Human Resource Management double majoring in Criminal Justice. 

    In 2008, Ms. Galloway became the Head Start Parents Committee Vice President.  She volunteered five hours a week at the center working with children and their parents for 2 years.  During this time, Ms. Galloway helped plan and organization the Head Start Annual End of Year Celebration as well has head parent meetings.  Ms. Galloway later studied Criminal Justice with a concentration in Corrections at North Carolina Central University graduating Cum Laude in 2016. While studying, she volunteered at the International Salvation Army Boys and Girls Clubs, which inspired her to develop and establish YAMM as a nonprofit corporation.
