As many of you already know, Eric Scott was selected by the John Williams Scholarship Foundation Board as the 2026 John Williams Scholarship recipient. Sponsored by the Carl and Mavis Williams Family and Henry Memorial Presbyterian Church, the John Williams Scholarship honors CSB of Middle Georgia staff members dedicated to advancing their behavioral health education in service to others. Eric’s selection reflects not only his outstanding academic performance, but also his character, leadership, and unwavering commitment to service. Eric demonstrates exceptional integrity, resilience, and a genuine dedication to helping others succeed. He is currently pursuing a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling while maintaining a 4.0 GPA and balancing professional responsibilities, leadership responsibilities, and family life.
Eric currently serves as a Wraparound Supervisor, supporting a team of care coordinators who work closely with some of the most vulnerable children and families throughout the communities we serve. These children and youth are at risk of being placed outside their homes due to complex behavioral health and environmental challenges. Through compassionate leadership and guidance, Eric helps ensure that his team remains focused, responsive, and aligned with best practices in family-centered care. At the heart of this work is a commitment to preserving families whenever safely possible, ensuring that children can remain in their homes surrounded by familiar support systems while receiving the care and structure they need to thrive.
Eric is widely recognized for leading by example—mentoring peers, fostering teamwork, and continuously seeking ways to improve both himself and the services provided to the community. His leadership reflects both professional excellence and a deep sense of compassion for the families and youth he serves. His passion for expanding treatment access, particularly for underserved youth, reflects the mission and values this scholarship represents.
Eric was recognized during the Scholarship Ceremony held on Sunday, May 17, 2026, at the 11:00 a.m. service at Henry Memorial Presbyterian Church in Dublin, Georgia. Mrs. Kathy Williams and Mrs. Jan Williams Jones, representatives of the Williams family, were also on hand for the ceremony. Congratulations, Eric, on this well-deserved recognition! CSBMG is incredibly proud of your accomplishments and the continued impact you are making in the lives of children, families, and communities served throughout Middle Georgia.
