Meet Our Team!

About our team

We are a small but dedicated group of individuals who strive to see the CCMP program succeed. We care deeply about the children and community in Athens and are working every day to ensure a brighter future for all!
​In addition to our team seen below, we are supported by the CCSD through all of the hard work of the dedicated counselors in every school.

Joe Ehrlich, Executive Director

Joe comes to CCMP following a 15-year career in finance, consulting, and commercial real estate. During the interview process, the Board was particularly struck by Joe's passion for mentoring and our program as a whole. (As but one example of this, Joe was recently named 2020 Mentor of the Year for Oglethorpe Avenue Elementary School.) The Board is confident that Joe's enthusiasm, diverse skill set, and entrepreneurial spirit will help CCMP continue its success and reach new heights in the years to come.

Terry Baez, Program Assistant

​Terry has served as the Program Assistant for the Clarke County Mentor Program since 2004. She is directly responsible for application management and the school assignment process – things would not run smoothly without her!
​Terry and her husband are originally from New York, but have called the Athens area home for the last 20 years. When she’s not at CCMP, she enjoys DIY crafts, gardening, and spending time with her grandchildren.

Erin Turner, Development Assistant

Erin recently spent a year as the AmeriCorps VISTA for the Clarke County Mentor Program. Her work helped impact many aspects of our impact, and we didn't want to see her go! She is currently on staff as the Development Assistant, helping our team improve our software capabilities.
Erin holds a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and a Bachelor's Degree in Communication Studies from the University of Georgia, and is currently pursuing her Master of Social Work at the University of Georgia. 
Erin and her husband have lived in Athens since 2014 and currently call Winterville home with their two cats and dog!

Ali Elyaman, AmeriCorps VISTA

CCMP is fortunate to receive support from the AmeriCorps VISTA program. Ali serves as a full-time VISTA with CCMP with his main responsibility of building capacity and analyzing CCMP's impact within the community. 
Ali is a recent graduate of the University of Georgia. He holds bachelor’s Degrees in History, Political Science, and Religion with a minor in Public Policy and Management. During his time in college he worked as a mentor for the office of student financial aid and other organizations. He decided that he wanted to pursue a year of service and found CCMP to be a perfect fit!
