She was the Lead Trainer for Freedom Trainers for 10 years. Freedom Trainers was a national network of consultant trainers who used political popular education to help organizations develop their analysis around anti-oppression and organization development. Much of their work was based on creating long term relationships with organizations and groups by working with staff, board and/or members. This type of organizational and board development has been a strong foundation for her work as a trainer for many years, as she believes in long term strategies for long term change from the roots of an organization.

YK continues her organizational development work under the same philosophies.
