| 45 years ago Dr. C. Vincent Bakeman and Mrs. Doris M. Lomax founded a not for profit organization what is now known as Human Resources Development Institute, Inc. (HRDI). The organization was formed as a result of a lack of services in the lower socio-economic communities of color in Chicago, IL and Alabama. Today HRDI continues to serve those same under-served communities, and many other disadvantaged populations. HRDI provides medical, mental health and substance abuse and various other services and programs. The HRDI employees choose to work here because what we do is necessary work. Our employees prevent despair and pain and provide hope collectively as a team where there is none. Our HRDI employee provide a service, hope, encouragement and empowerment to a deserving community in need. |
