I am Elder Janet Brown-Clayton, a native of New Haven and minister at St. Matthew’s UFW Baptist Church. With 40 years of experience as an educator in urban and suburban settings, I hold two degrees in Human Services/Counseling. Becoming a facilitator for the “Interruptions” course is a natural extension of my ministry and professional background. I have supported families and friends through trauma and see this training as essential for enhancing my ability to assist God’s people.
