CHECK-IN: NEW LINK - ALCHEMY, INC

I take profound pleasure in posting here about the work of my good friend, G. Kwame Scruggs, who holds a Masters of Arts degree in Mythological Studies with degree specialization in Jungian Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute in Santa Barbara, California, (my alma mater as well). The pleasure stems from the echo of so many lunches we had, during which I could always hear Kwame's deep passion to help his community and especially its young people. In 2003 he founded Alchemy Inc.

What a joy to see his work flourish.

Here is a link: Making The Grade: Helping Our Kids Achieve, where about 13 or so minutes into the program, they talk about some of the fruition of Mr. Scruggs' work. The program might be of interest to anyone interested in working with young people.

Alchemy, Inc., a non-profit organization incorporated in the State of Ohio, was established in 2003 with the mission of assisting urban youth and young adults in developing a sense of personal purpose in life while utilizing strategies for successfully navigating the process of personal, familial, academic, social, and community development.
