About Project Pneuma

Founder and Executive Director, Damion Cooper, birthed Project Pneuma in 2014 after a near death experience of being shot an inch above the heart at point-blank range. He began a healing journey of his own to teach lessons of forgiveness, self-control, discipline and redemption via mentorship. While mentoring a young man in prison during his years in Seminary, he discovered that his mentee was the assailant who shot him years earlier.
