Congratulations to Shelby County Deputy CAO Dorcas Young-Griffin and Division of Community Services Director Sandy Bromley for being honored at the Statehouse during the General Assembly's Women's Day on the Hill. Both of these women lead the work that directly supports families, creates opportunities for youth, and takes care of our most vulnerable. This is well deserved.

As we continue recognizing the incredible women who help power the mission of Black Men Heal, today we honor Edie King.

Edie serves as both a provider and Program Coordinator, playing a dual role in supporting the men we serve and helping our programs run with care and intention. Through her work as a clinician, she creates space for healing, growth, and honest conversations. Behind the scenes, her coordination helps ensure that our services remain impactful, organized, and accessible.

Her ability to balance both direct care and program leadership makes her an essential part of how we deliver on our mission.

We are grateful for Edie’s dedication, compassion, and continued contributions to Black Men Heal.

Thank you for helping us make healing possible.
