As your peer supporter, I bring a wealth of lived experience and a deep understanding of life's complexities. I successfully navigated the challenging path of beating addiction and alcoholism, and I'm a dedicated parent who has raised 3 children, 1 of whom has cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and deafness. I've learned firsthand about unwavering advocacy and perseverance. My journey has also included the profound grief of losing a grandson and the ongoing challenge of having a son currently incarcerated. These experiences, while incredibly difficult, have forged a strong sense of resilience, empathy, and commitment to helping others find their way through tough times. I'm here to listen, share insights, and support you with absolutely no judgment and an open heart. YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!!
