The Mission
Reverend Harry Seawright, pastor of the Union Bethel AME
Church in Maryland, is on a mission. That mission is to ensure that the
members of his congregation (over 2,000 strong) and the surrounding
community have access to vital support services. Since 1996, Reverend
Seawright has been laying the foundation for this network through a
variety of means; including job placement and training programs,
counseling services and health education programs. However, his focus is
primarily placed on the care, development, and education of the children
in his community. His commitment to the program is reflected in his
credo of "changing a generation one child at a time".
Access to Services
Reverend Seawright established the For Our Children's
Unity School (FOCUS) which provides children of all ages with access to
a variety of educational programs and activities designed to build
self-esteem and social skills in a safe, nurturing environment. As
Reverend Seawright states, "the FOCUS program is designed to ensure that
young children are given a good, solid foundation to begin their life's
journey". |
