Robert Tajti: Music Not Mischief
Music Not Mischief mentors youth through music
Constable ROBERT TAJTI took a difficult personal experience and turned it into a very positive community project. Having parented a troubled teenaged daughter, Robert wanted to form a program that provides kids with a positive way to be engaged - as an alternative to drugs and violence. So in 2008 he formed Music! Not Mischief - a youth outreach program that partners schools, the police and the community where volunteer police mentors give guitar lessons to local kids. Students learn to play in a safe environment and, at the end of the initiative, they get to showcase their talents in a stage performance with local rock band Tracenine. Year Two of the program has expanded to two local highschools where students will be enriched thorough music and positive role models - and also get the chance to learn from their peers and build a sense of community.
