                        Thursday, June 24, 2021

  Ms. BUSH. Madam Speaker, I rise to honor Mr. Halbert Sullivan, 
founder and CEO of Fathers & Families Support Center (FFSC) who passed 
away on April 15, 2021. Mr. Sullivan is a shining personification of 
triumphing over mistakes and using them as a catalyst for change. As 
the founder of FFSC, Mr. Sullivan was continually recognized for his 
groundbreaking work in the community, including being awarded with the 
Gold Pin for the President's Volunteer Service Award, a Lifetime 
Achievement Award from the National Partnership of Community 
Leadership, multiple honors from the NAACP, Missouri Association of 
Social Welfare, Washington University, and many others. In 2017, Mr. 
Sullivan was also named St. Louis' Nonprofit Executive of the Year. He 
was unquestionably a change agent whose work and impact reverberated in 
the lives of every person he touched. St. Louis has been made lastingly 
better because of his legacy and he will be sorely and widely missed.
