Letitia Evans

Hi, I’m Letitia Evans! 👑 I’m an entrepreneur, mentor, community advocate, and Founder & Director of Uplift Collective NFP, an organization focused on empowering youth, adults, and families through mentorship, education, entrepreneurship, and access to community resources. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Criminology and Criminal Justice with a minor in Sociology from Southern Illinois University Carbondale. My professional background includes juvenile probation, child welfare investigations, and youth development. Through my professional and entrepreneurial experiences, I’ve developed a passion for helping people overcome obstacles, build confidence, set meaningful goals, and take actionable steps toward success. Whether you’re exploring a business idea, looking for guidance on getting started, or simply need encouragement and accountability, my goal is to provide a welcoming space for honest conversations and practical guidance. I believe you don’t have to have everything figured out to take your next step. Sometimes all you need is clarity, encouragement, and a plan. Let’s turn your goals into action! 💗
