- PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY:
Dr. Garland Scott has specialized in program management, problem resolution, and ministering to inner-city residents and ex-convicts throughout his professional career. He has worked closely with individuals, assisting them in correcting their life choices and setting/ achieving new goals. Dr. Scott’s compassionate nature drives him to initiate and direct programs that reach out to assist people in attaining purpose in life.
Dr. Scott began his career with Promise Keepers, a men’s ministry that planned events which fed tens of thousands of people. He served as Chairman of the Board for both Duval House and Impact House, which deal with youthful offenders.
In 1994, Reverend Scott founded City Center Ministry in Jacksonville, Florida. Through this ministry, he has initiated several community-based programs focusing on people in need, ex-offenders and people dealing with drug and/or alcohol addictions. He provides training to volunteer teams who visit homes of new converts living in the crime related areas associated with inner cities.
Dr. Scott is responsible for establishing “M-A-S-H” units, which provide spiritual care to people who are homeless or suffering from addictions. In addition, he founded Connecting the Dots, Inc. This organization’s purpose is to connect diverse community leaders who engage in collaborative efforts to restore a feeling of brotherhood in the city. They work ministry to ministry, complementing each other’s work instead of competing with one another.
Ready4Work is an initiative Reverend Scott began in Jacksonville, Florida that takes offenders from municipal, state and federal institutions that are returning to Duval County, Florida. The goal of the program is to mentor these soon-to-be ex-offenders and assist them in gaining employment upon release. President George W. Bush has recognized Rev. Scott’s effort and the far reaching effects it is producing. He invited Reverend Scott to the White House to discuss taking the Ready4Work program to the national level. Dr. Scott met with President Bush, Elaine L. Chao, Director of the Department of Labor, and U.S. Attorney General Ashcroft to initiate a plan to use Rev. Scott’s Ready4Work program as a model for the nation.
Dr. Scott has spoken at several conventions as a motivational speaker on many topics such as Restorative Justice and the role of the Black Church for the National Association of Blacks In Criminal Justice, Discovering your purpose and potential and how to maximize your strengths in the workforce place. He also works part time as a National Grant Reviewer. He has appeared on many talk shows on networks such as CNN, PBS, Religion Effectives and the Trinity Board Casting Network.
