Welcome to Episode 30 of Inspiring Community: An Inspire to Rise Podcast. Today's episode was led by our host, Drew Brandom! Please join us as he interviews our guests, Faith Gardner and Elias Seeraj, Youth Peers at Inspire to Rise.
Faith and Elias are both Jacksonville natives who got involved with Inspire to Rise thanks to their parents. Faith's mother, Felecia Gardner, is the Intake, Training, & Community Outreach Director at Inspire to Rise. Elias' mother, meanwhile, is Founder & CEO Aida Seeraj.
Faith and Elias provide Youth Peer support to the INSPIRED Youth program, as well as other support where needed, including Elias' dreaded filing. Both have found working for Inspire to Rise very fulfilling, and it has inspired both of them to pursue Psychology as a major when they begin college later this year.
