Meet Jerry Maygarden, a proud Pensacola native and valued member of the board of directors for our parent company, LifeView Group.
With decades of leadership—as Mayor of Pensacola, a Florida state legislator, Navy veteran, and community champion—Jerry brings unmatched passion to our mission of helping people. His connection to our organization dates back to the 1990s, when he first saw the compassion behind our work.
“People would be shocked by the impact LifeView Group has on our community,” he says. Last year, our nonprofit family of companies served:
• 29,000+ people through Lakeview Center's behavioral health care
• 2,700+ children through FamiliesFirst Network's child protective services
• 1,000 people with disabilities through GCE - Global Connections to Employment
