Dr. Moody is not satisfied with being a mere onlooker at life’s state of affairs but is relentless and sincere in his drive to improve the community in which he resides. There is an undeclared “state of emergency” in regards to the educational environment of minority children and youth in our community, and he has established the Alpha Preparatory Academy to address it. His goal is to create intellectual leaders of tomorrow while equipping them with the tools that are necessary to compete in the new global economy. An outburst of obesity-related diseases is ravaging our region's health to the point that 1 out of 3 minorities is either pre-diabetic or already diabetic in Williamson County alone. This epidemic is the reason why he created the Community of Coalition of Health, also known as C2H. His goal is for C2H to become a hub that works with local, regional and national health organizations to improve the quality of health services provided. After seeing a desperate need for affordable housing due to documented economic stratification in Williamson County, he started The Moody Housing Corporation. His goal is to address the rental and ownership needs of a displaced population. Dr. Moody utilizes his Doctoral training in Strategic Leadership and Futuring to look ahead into the distance and discuss the issues and concerns of tomorrow.
