 With a judgment for
deportation from Immigration court, ACC Behavioral Health case manager Rafik
Seifeldin turned his client’s life around by assisting him in overcoming
his obstacles. It took Rafik seven years of coordinating services for this
case, while keeping all of the client’s benefits and rights intact.
Using his resources of attorneys, social service professionals and various
agencies, Rafik managed to win the deportation case. Rafik also assisted his
client with enrollment in a class to prepare for the citizenship
examinations. His client passed the exam with a 90% score, took the oath and
was awarded his citizenship certificate in the federal court building. Rafik’s efforts demonstrated perseverance and determination to
provide his client with a better life.
ACC’s Behavioral Health Division is a comprehensive community-based, outpatient
program committed to providing comprehensive, culturally sensitive behavioral
