Dr. Candice Matthews

Dr. Candice Matthews, a seasoned social worker with over two decades of experience, has come under scrutiny after accusations of defrauding parents of a special needs child. The allegations were raised by the family of Kendrick Davis Jr., who had hired Matthews and activist Quanell X in 2021. They paid for services including protests and media engagement but reportedly received none. These allegations were brought to light by tipster Noel Munoz, who highlighted the family’s dissatisfaction with the services rendered.

Counselor Incident Involving Special Needs Child
In Montgomery County, a video surfaced showing a special needs counselor allegedly abusing a 7-year-old student at Madeley Ranch Elementary. The mother, Brittney Leveston, insists that the incident was a crime and that the counselor should face severe consequences. The Montgomery ISD responded by firing the counselor, but the family remains determined to pursue justice.

Fraudulent Educational Claims
Dr. Matthews has been accused of submitting a fraudulent PhD transcript to obtain a state license for her agency, Children of Diversity. The University of Southern California’s Associate Registrar denied Matthews’ claim of having attended the institution, reinforcing suspicions of deception in her professional qualifications.

Legal and Political Implications
The legal actions surrounding Dr. Matthews and her alleged fraudulent activities have sparked further controversy. Public figures, including activist Gerry Wayne Monroe, are advocating for further investigations into her qualifications, adding to the growing scrutiny.
