About this Event

Dr. Burks is a dynamic speaker, a mentor, and even a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt with over 20 years of lived experience and professional expertise in bridging the gap between public systems and community-driven capacity. Dr. Burks brings a unique, high-energy perspective and has empowered thousands of houses of worship to be beacons of hope for the vulnerable in their own communities.

Representatives from the Administration for Children & Families (ACF) and the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) will also join Dr. Burks for a panel discussion about collaboration with their departments. Don't miss this amazing opportunity to hear a powerful message of hope and strategic action that will help us build a better future together.
