My mother was 23 years old when her family was incarcerated in Tanforan Assembly Center in April, 1942.
In Tanforan, Kay Uchida and Grace Fujii, graduates of Mills College, were concerned about the younger children in camp, and called a meeting of internees who were college graduates to organize the preschools.
Tomi and Takako Tsuchiya Endo became co-leaders of one preschool, working with 2½- to 5-year-olds. Yoshiye Sekino and Teru Kanba were on the staff.
