About
Dr. Moss brings two decades of experience and unwavering commitment to education and human services, particularly in championing at-risk youth. His impressive educational background includes a Doctora... te in Public Administration from Capella University, a master’s degree in administration of justice and security from the University of Phoenix, a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice, and an associate degree in law enforcement. He is also a proud member of the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Incorporated.
Dr. Moss's professional journey is deeply rooted in a personal tragedy—the loss of his brother to out-of-home displacement at the young age of 11. This poignant experience fueled his dedication to aiding young individuals facing similar challenges, steering him toward a career focused on improving the lives of at-risk youth. Beginning his career at the Michigan Department of Corrections as a Probation/Parole Officer, Dr. Moss later relocated to Minnesota, assuming the role of Juvenile Detention Alternatives Initiative (JDAI) Director for Ramsey County Juvenile Services. Notably, during his tenure with JDAI, Dr. Moss played a pivotal role in the creation and successful passage of a bill aimed at dismantling Extended Juvenile Jurisdiction (EJJ) probation, addressing the disproportionate incarceration rates of youth of color. Dr. Moss firmly believes that authentic youth justice transformation necessitates decision-makers with a profound understanding of the struggles faced by youth, guided by empathy and love.read more
