For part of her childhood, Gloria Cissé lived in an apartment now within eyesight of the Booker T. Washington Center in Macon’s Pleasant Hill neighborhood. That’s just one community center where her mental health practice, The Southern Center For Choice Theory, recently began offering counseling to young people.
When community leaders held the first in a series of public forums about what Macon-Bibb County should do about the spiking rate of violence and homicide in the city, Cissé was tapped to facilitate the discussion.
