Breath is proof of purpose—every inhale is a reminder that your story isn’t over yet.
The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.

Tynea Cooper, CEO

Hi, my name is Minister Tynea Cooper, and I’m honored to introduce you to the incredible team and partners behind this mission. As the CEO and founder of this movement, my journey has been one of triumph, restoration, and purpose. The Still Breathing Movement was birthed from my own experiences—overcoming domestic violence, infirmity, and major setbacks. I am living proof that God can restore, and He can also preserve life.

None of this would be possible without the dedicated individuals who pour their hearts into this work every day. I invite you to meet the team and our amazing change partners who help bring this vision to life!
