Our Team
Nehanda A.M. Lindsey, MS, MIB, CMP
Senior Program Manager – Metro Atlanta, GA
"Unless communities and individuals surviving at the lower rungs of our society experience 'perspective transformation,' they will not harness their innate powers to influence change; they will be continually subjected to the poor conditions in which they live. My personal and professional efforts are therefore focused on creating inspirational "AHA" moments that initiate progressive thoughts and lead to actions that sustain improvements to everyone's quality of life."
(Nehanda Lindsey)
