Tmar Gulston, raised in Harlem, New York, has dedicated his career to supporting underserved populations through re-entry services and case management. Since July 2022, Tmar has served as a Group Facilitator and Senior Case Manager at Access Houses Independent Living, where he supervises a team working with individuals who are mentally ill, chemically addicted, and formerly incarcerated (MICA).
