The Dent Professional Development Advantage
Your Coaches and Founders of Dent Enterprises Dr. Charles and Jabaria Dent, currently pastor The City of Grace Mobile in Mobile, Alabama and have six children–Jessica, Meagan, Chelsea Christopher, Sharayon and Kennedy– and two dogs, Lady and Carter.
Dent Enterprises, Inc.
Our professional development sessions are not intended to supplant any existing mental health services currently being offered by organization’s Employee Assistance Programs. We are advocates for mental healthcare and strongly encourage employees to seek counseling from a licensed mental health expert whenever needed; however, we also recognize that mental healthcare is still relatively new, especially in communities of color. The issues facing students and their families are often systemic. COVID-19 has left an overwhelming need for social-emotional supports to help educators and other professionals serving children and families effectively respond to and deal with mental health related issues.
Whole group professional development sessions remove the stigma often associated with counseling; it also allows us to address issues and problems that are happening on a larger scale and equip staff with a group-think approach and perspective from which to respond to issues they may face with their students.
Dr. Charles Dent, CEO

She served as the founding Director of Personalized Learning and Career Technical Education for ACCEL Day & Evening Academy, Alabama’s first public charter high school in Mobile, AL.

A Dynamic Duo
At their core, the Dents are passionate about transforming their community, one family at a time. In partnership with ACCEL, they developed programming for at-risk students to help build social-emotional resiliency by tapping into students’ gifts and talents and redirecting their energy towards entrepreneurship, spiritual development and community service. Their work was recognized in 2017 and again in 2020 as they are two-time grant recipients of the NoVo/Education First SEL Innovators Award.
They have presented at Alabama’s MEGA Conference, Education First’s national SEL Innovators Conference and numerous school, faith, and community based organizations around the country, helping to build capacity and social-emotional resilience in both educators and the students/families they serve.
