Return to Home Activity after successfully sending email Android

My app allows the user to enter in information in various fields, take a photo, and then send all the information to a pre-determined email address.

Once they have sent the email, I would like to display a thank you message (probably via Toast) and then take them back to my Home Activity. To use iOS jargon, how do I perform a segue to another screen on successfully sending an email.

EDIT: I have attempted to implement the solution provided, but not my app is just moving to the next scene, and not sending the email. Have i implemented it incorrectly?

if (Witness_response == "Yes"){
                Intent emailIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
                emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{"[email protected]"});
                emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Dob in a Hoon Report(Y)");
                emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Hoon report has been recieved " + emailBody);
                emailIntent.setType("image/*");
                Uri uri = Uri.fromFile(f);
                emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri);
                emailIntent.setType("message/rfc822");
                startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Choose email client..."));
                Intent ReturnIntent = new Intent(dob_in_a_hoon.this, HomeScreen.class );
                dob_in_a_hoon.this.startActivity(ReturnIntent);

This snippet allows you to move from activity B to activity A:

    Intent i = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), HomeActivity.class);
    startActivity(i);

Or like ed209 said, you can go back to previous activity by calling onBackPressed method.

That really depends on how your application is built, if it is built on fragment swapping you will want to load up the desired fragment. Otherwise you could start a new intent (Activity) like this 

Intent myIntent = new Intent(CurrentActivity.this, NextActivity.class);
myIntent.putExtra("key", value); //Optional parameters
CurrentActivity.this.startActivity(myIntent);

You could even get away with just calling onBackPressed which will take you back to the previous activity.
