Georgia’s Continental Shelf & Blake Plateau Hope Spot

Published by Dr. Simona L. Perry

I am currently a seminarian in The General Theological Seminary, Hybrid M.Div. Program (2026-2029) as a postulant to the priesthood in the Episcopal Diocese of Georgia. I currently serve as Founder and Chair of the Advisory Committee for Oceans Connect, on the Board of Directors of Environmental Health Project in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, as a Red Cross Volunteer in Southeast Georgia, and as an occasional writer and editor for Which Way Savannah's print-only newspaper, LIBERATOR. From 2011-2025 I ran c.a.s.e. (c.ommunity a.wareness s.olutions for e.mpowerment), a for-profit grassroots consultancy to raise awareness and build local and regional coalitions centering the interconnections between ecology, culture, politics, economics, and individual and community change. In 2025 I self-published the ethnographic memoir and guide to living through individual and community change and finding (w)hol(i)ness, "Good Works, Love Rules: Facing Change, Resurrecting Community, Transforming Our Fractured World Together," available for order on-line in both print and e-book.
