HIGHLIGHTS
- Elected by judicial colleagues as Administrative Judge of the County Courts
- Founded the Juvenile Intervention and Mental Health Court (JIMH)- Judge Mathew created the JIMH Court to begin servicing youth with mental health issues in the Fort Bend County Juvenile Justice System in January 2021. The program has the support of all of the County Court at Law Judges, Juvenile Probation, Texana as well as other professional and treatment providers. The program is set to help the most vulnerable in our community, to help rehabilitate and reduce recidivism. The Ft Bend County Commissioners Court on Tuesday, December 08, 2020, gave unanimous approval to create the new Specialty Court. The court received support from the local community as well. During the public comments, Shariq Abdul Ghani, representing the Minaret Foundation, Ft Bend Transformation Church, and the Fort Bend Interfaith Community spoke in support of this court.
- Launched the Kitchen to the Courthouse program for High-school girls in conjunction with Chef Roshini Guarani and the India Culture Center. When looking at the Restaurant Industry, we see that the majority of the chefs are male. (The same was true in the legal industry for very many years.) So, when I met Chef Gurnani, I was excited to team up with her and create this endeavor along with the India Culture Center. We had about 30 girls participate. Through this program, we introduced young girls to influential females, in various industries, who are paving the way for others to follow.
- Created the Chai and Chat Series and various social events to introduce the courts and legal system to the general public to become more knowledgeable and especially first and second-generation Americans not to be fearful but make it more user friendly.

- Collaborated with Fort Bend ISD Leadership Academy for High School students to visit and learn more about the judiciary and it’s functions.
