This year, THINK Together’s keynote speaker is Geoffrey Canada, President and CEO of the Harlem Children’s Zone (HCZ) in Harlem, New York. In his 20-plus years with Harlem Children’s Zone, Geoffrey Canada has become nationally recognized for his pioneering work helping children and families in Harlem escape poverty while passionately advocating for education reform nationwide.

The work of Canada and HCZ has become a national model and has been the subject of many profiles in the media. Their work has been featured on 60 Minutes, The Oprah Winfrey Show, The To-day Show, Good Morning America, Nightline, CBS This Morning, The Charlie Rose Show, and NPR’s “On Point,” as well in articles in The New York Times, The New York Daily News, USA Today and Newsday. Most recently, Canada can be seen prominently featured in Davis Guggenheim’s documentary film, Waiting for “Superman”.

Geoffrey Canada is one of the very few people who have succeeded in building a pipeline of services at a neighborhood level and then take his vision to scale. It inspired a national movement toward building collaborative and aligned services that eliminate the impact that pov-erty has on a child’s potential - work that is similar to what THINK Together is doing.
