Our Team

Jocelyn Gibson

Curator, Foster Care

I love working with our foster parents! Our community needs great foster parents to help many families across the Upstate.

Keith Moreland

Curator, Elder Support

Life doesn’t end with a diagnosis, it just means you need to make some adjustments for a new turn on the ride.

Mari Birchmore

Curator, Pregnancy Care

I’m passionate about working with moms and babies and I love the Nurse-Family Partnership of Anderson County. I dream of seeing new moms being served well in every county!

Susan Beauford

Curator, Addiction Recovery

My philosophy is that it takes a village to get someone that is in addiction into recovery. My passion is for Anderson County to come together and be the village that is passionate about addressing Addiction and Recovery as well as other needs that our residents may encounter when trying to better their life.

Thank you for doing this! I got your info from Jordan at AIM. I work at AnMed and frequently get requests for info on what’s out there for people. Plus I have contact with Calvary Home alumni who are frequently looking for assistance. Jordan said your book is excellent.

You do such amazing work within the community. Thank you! I brought your Guide to the attention to our entire staff during our staff meeting yesterday and they were thrilled to have something like this available to us. Your guide would be perfect for our needs to help our survivors out with having something tangible in their hands for quick and easy accessibility. We would like to request 1000 Guides, please. Is this possible?
