Exciting New Chapter:
From Nonprofit Leader to Business Innovator
I’m thrilled to announce that as of September 23, 2024, I will be transitioning from my role as Founder-In-Residence of The Confess Project of America (TCPA) to fully focus on expanding our for-profit business, TCP Ventures, with a continued dedication to mental health and social impact.
I now serve as a board emeritus member for both TCPA and our non-profit L&J Empowerment.
In my new role, I’ll concentrate on growing two innovative brands—Confess Health and Confess Schools—bringing TCPA's proven curriculum to hospitals and schools across the U.S. This program will train individuals to become mental health advocates, equipping them with the tools to engage in meaningful conversations about emotional well-being and critical issues like opioid addiction.
Simultaneously, I'm focused on driving growth and sustainability within our corporate arm, The Lewis Family of Businesses, with an emphasis on family-owned ventures.
During my time at TCPA, we achieved remarkable milestones in community impact and advocacy. Now, as the for-profit side reaches a pivotal growth stage, I see an incredible opportunity to scale our operations and drive innovation in new sectors.
