🎉 A Milestone Rooted in Mission
This July, we celebrate not just a professional milestone—but a moment that reflects a lifelong journey of purpose. Mujeddid Muhammad, our Director of Programs, is now officially a Licensed Social Worker (LSW).
For those who know him, this news won’t come as a surprise. Mujeddid has always walked the path of healing, advocacy, and service. This license simply affirms what we at TMLY—and the youth we serve—have long known: he was born for this work.
💬 From Lived Experience to Licensed Leadership
Mujeddid doesn’t just work in social justice and youth development—he embodies it. His lived experiences, his leadership in and outside of institutions, and his steady presence in our programming have changed countless lives. Becoming a licensed social worker is more than a title. It’s a reflection of years of hard-won wisdom, academic excellence, and unwavering dedication.
It means our young people get access to a leader who is both credentialed and deeply connected. It means our team is stronger. And it means our future is brighter.
“My license is not the start of this work—it’s just the next chapter.”
