Patrice Berry - Executive Director

As an Executive Director with over 15 years of experience in Human Development and the Service industry, one of my primary aspirations has been the advice of Henry Kissinger, "The task of a leader is to get his people from where they are to where they have not been."
I have 3 beautiful daughters and my wonderful extended family who keep me grounded in continuing faith, love, and peace. I truly believe in Sufficiency of Families. It can be a tremendous catalyst in changing the lives of the most vulnerable members of our community.
I'm very passionate and driven. My greatest strenghts are mentoring, teaching and guiding individuals so they can reach great professional and personal heights. By developing very close relationships with each client we come to understand and intimate details of their status. This allows us to help them find emotional, physical, and financial independence - our ultimate goal.
