Terry K. Miller
Personal Vision: to have a positive impact on my world.
For the past 35 years Terry has worked tirelessly to improve the social landscape of The Bahamas. In 1991 he founded Bahamas Association for Social Health (BASH), which operates a substance use disorder treatment and rehabilitation (T&R) programme in New Providence. As executive director of BASH, Terry has traveled through the U.S., Canada, England, Parts of Asia, South Africa, and the Caribbean learning and sharing best practices in T&R, community development, and democracy. He has participated in, and facilitated, numerous local and international workshops, conferences, and seminars and has had the opportunity to help thousands of persons addicted to substances and their families.
Terry has also designed and facilitated drug free workplace workshops, and workshops promoting employee assistance programmes (EAPs). He is the designer of the BASH Youth Build-A-Skill programe which targets the most at-risk youth to provide them with a holistic education regime that includes marketable, soft, and social skills administered in a spiritual environment.
He has produced several videos, a movie, and is presently the author of Imagine Bahamas newspaper column, and producer of a TV talk show and podcast, focused on promoting the strategies and tactics of the National Peace Initiative, which he wrote to motivate Bahamian citizens, residents, and members of the Bahamian diaspora to transform The Bahamas into the safest, most peaceful country in the world.
In his mid-seventies, Terry sees himself as in ‘the gun lap’ where he has to work even harder to finish the race and fulfill his God-given purpose.
