Selma's Susan Youngblood returned to SABRA Sanctuary as executive director, three decades after founding the agency to help families in need in the Black Belt. Youngblood, a longtime victims advocate and one of the founding leaders of SABRA Sanctuary, has stepped in as director at a time when the agency is rebuilding after funding shortages, leadership turnover and the loss of its original shelter building during the 2023 tornado.
Youngblood talks about her return to SABRA with Black Belt News Network's Todd Prater.
