As this time of uncertainty persists, NEFA has made the necessary decision to adjust our timeline for  Regional Dance Development Initiative (RDDI): New England Now .  We remain steadfast in our efforts to create a culture of abundance for dance makers across the region. We look forward to new possibilities when we relaunch the program in the near future.
