Tovonte Collins

Hello, my name is Tovonte Collins, and I work as a Special Programs Coordinator for the Youth Aware of Mental Health Program. I was born and raised here in Houston, Texas After graduating I spent 4 years in the armed forces working as Behavioral Health Technician. In those year I worked with soldiers as well as family members who needed help with their mental fostering an environment of healing on all different levels. After the military I went back to school and obtained my bachelor’s degree in a major of Kinesiology and a minor in Exercise Science. Before coming to the Yam program, I worked with children with autism on behavior therapy. My goal always is to try to leave something better than how I found it!
