Snipped>>>>>Dawnn Jaffier, a Brighton native who officials said was engaged, graduated from UMass Amherst and served with City Year Boston. She was a coach at the Boys and Girls Club.
Beautiful person, beautiful heart, said her father. Always giving to the community.
In an interview Dawnn Jaffier gave to City Year last year, she said that when she finished City Year she wanted to keep helping young people, so she joined Playworks, which provides programming for elementary schools. She began working at the Hennigan Elementary School, where she was a warm, bright presence.
She has transformed a school once riddled with behavior issues and bullying into a place of high fives and rock, paper, scissors, read one glowing, undated write-up on the Playworks website when Jaffier was awarded Coach of the Month.
