Amanda Manard is the newest team member of the Resilient Communities of SWGA coalition. Amanda received her bachelor’s degree from Berry College in 2017, double majoring in Early Childhood Education and Spanish. She received her master’s degree from Georgia Southern University in Curriculum and Instruction in 2023. She is a former teacher, having taught for seven years. However, her passion for raising awareness for mental health and for advocating for children and their families peaked her interest to change careers and to come to Vashti.
