COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – Tennessee Tech women's basketball head coach Kim Rosamond has joined Coaches 4 Change (C4C), an organization that is founded by college basketball coaches who are dedicated to helping their student-athletes, their campus and their communities.

"I am honored to stand with the coaching community in the fight against racism and social injustice through the Coaches4Change alliance," Rosamond said. "This is an organization that is committed to engaging, educating, empowering and evolving today's student-athletes in order to prepare them to be the leaders of tomorrow."

Rosamond is entering her fifth season at the helm of the Tennessee Tech women's basketball program, and the vision of C4C falls in line with the S.O.A.R. culture that has been created within the Golden Eagle team.

The mission of C4C is to provide a platform that engages, educates, empowers, and evolves the collegiate student-athlete on issues of social injustice, systemic racism, and the power of voting in the endless pursuit of equality. The four Pillars of C4C are to:

ENGAGE our fellow coaches and student-athletes within our campus and local communities. To raise awareness and involvement in the endless pursuit for equality through voter registration.

EDUCATE our fellow coaches and student athletes with historical information pertaining to systemic racism, social injustice, police brutality and significant events that have shaped our country.

EMPOWER our fellow coaches and student-athletes to inspire change through the power of voting.

EVOLVE the minds of our fellow coaches and student-athletes to help foster positive changes within their collegiate and local communities surrounding the issues of racism and social injustice.

The pillars will serve as the four foundational elements that will guide our endless pursuit of EQUALITY. For more information, visit www.coaches4change.org or @Coaches4Change on social media.
