Honoring Past Champions: Mark Douglas

DRChampion

As we continue to take time to remember past Dignity & Respect champions, let us honor Mark Douglas, last December’s winner for his work with disadvantaged youth.

As a foster parent to teenagers, Mark Douglas has helped disadvantaged youth his entire career. And as director of the Pittsburgh Job Corps Center, Mark has been responsible for all training and academic programs, and supervision of daily enter operations, with 232 staff members whose belief is that everyone should feel valuable.

With 850 students, Pittsburgh has the largest college program in Job Corps. Mark and his staff practice positive reinforcement, and rewards the students for all their accomplishments.
