Community Leader Co-President


Steven Miller is a resilient individual whose life has been shaped by profound adversity. Losing his father to violence at a tender age exposed him to the harsh realities of life. Raised by a single mother, Steven understands the crucial role that mentors play in the lives of young people. Unfortunately, circumstances forced him to resort to illegal activities like robbery and drug sales for survival. This path ultimately led him to serve a 10-year prison sentence. Determined to prevent others from making the same mistakes, Steven is now dedicated to showing children the consequences of such lifestyles. He strives to create positive environments for youth, encouraging them to pursue their dreams. Steven's love for music and athletics also serves as a powerful tool in his mentoring, inspiring young minds to follow their passions.
