After staying at home for 15 years prior to returning to school in 2006 to brush up on my administrative skills, having worked previously during the CRT and Lotus 123 era I was rusty! I graduated from Atlanta Technical College in June 2009 with an Associate’s Degree in Marketing Management earning a Certificate in Small Business Management. Additionally, I earned a diploma in Business Office Technology. I have applied to Georgia State University, the Andrew Young School of Public Policy where my concentration will be earning a B.S. degree in a social entrepreneurship and nonprofit management. I am also a mental health consumer/survivor who planned my own reintegration program. Earning my Associate degree is my first milestone and with that success, my plan is to implement a reintegration program using tools from my success and other consumers who have been successful to form an organization (New FoundMinds) that returns consumers to the community as productive, sustainable citizens. New FoundMinds is a proposed nonprofit organization. The main objective is to build an inclusive community in Atlanta, GA for mental health consumers who find themselves not severe enough to warrant placement in care homes or homes that are not designed for independence and sustainability for the client. By developing a well-rounded resourceful reintegration, program available to support homeless veterans and mental health consumers in mastering the complexities of reintegration along with enriching activities our program will encourage self-sufficiency and sustainability. A proposed collaboration and partnership with Common Ground (COMMON GROUND is an international leader in the development of solutions to homelessness) New FoundMinds will provide supportive permanent housing with social services. Supportive housing combines affordable accommodations with services like mental health and substance abuse counseling, job training and placement, community activities, and help with life skills such as cooking and money management. Becoming productive members of their communities has been a national wide initiative for the mental health community. Collaborating with Georgia Mental Health programs and Peer Support groups New FoundMinds proposes to implement a reintegration program with the capacity to address the needs of the clients (mental health consumers) by raising awareness of the need for a specialized structure for successful reintegration back to their respective communities, home, and workplace.
