Sojourner Consultancy's Founder & Director
Tawanda R. Brooks
My inspiration towards making a difference in the lives of returning citizens initiated while working with the Michigan Department of State as a short-term worker, assisting former incarcerated persons in rebuilding their lives by re-establishing their identifications. I later pursued my Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration and am now completing my MPA in Public Administration at Western Michigan University School of Public Administration.
