Originally named, Legacy Training and Development, Inc. a.k.a. “Legacy” was conceived in gratitude and the desire to impact people in a meaningful, lasting way. Legacy’s original co-founder, Robert Anthony Ketchens, and I both grew up in circumstances that others have not survived. We combined the collective lessons that we learned in our professions, our passions, and our desire to serve our community as our way of expressing our gratitude.

Training means “to teach a person a skill or a behavior.” Our work seeks to empower every individual who participates in an event, to leave with a new skill, perspective, and an increased sense of purpose. Legacy brings subject matter experts related to health and well-being,  and accomplished teaching

artists into communities that would not have access to them otherwise. Each project is designed using a multi-cultural, intergenerational and innovative approach.
