Nearly 100M people are affected by mass incarceration in the U.S. and within that population, reincarceration disproportionally affects Black and Hispanic communities. Partners like @usbank help us address the need for racial equity within our community and across the nation.

Humbled & honored to even be associated with @SFofStL... and so very thankful to have them as partners in service of our @Avas_Grace scholars. #hopefamilyfuture #HOPE

When you stop by the @Avas_Grace PO Box to find a random $3,000 donation from a local family foundation. Random because I don���t know them personally. But beautiful and inspiring and impactful nonetheless. #STL

I am taking a “minute” and organizing some @Avas_Grace Scholarship items. Notes, partner info, board meetings, etc etc etc. I came across the email I sent my mom in the spring if 2010 telling her that I wanted to start the foundation. 1/

I didn’t get a picture... but I kicked off my day getting to tell 60 lawyers, judges and child advocates across the country that keeping the connection between parents and children while a parent is incarcerated is essential if we are serious about: breaking cycles...1/

My little one will be 11 next week. She got me through the toughest of times when she was just a baby. I named a scholarship in her honor, @Avas_Grace. She is the reason I stand up, donate, vote & speak out even when it’s not popular to do so. Our kids deserve our best shot!

You know what #leadership looks like? Let me tell you: It’s not always rainbows & unicorns & annual bonuses. In fact, it rarely is. It’s tough calls and sleepless nights and giving credit away. It’s taking the knocks so others don’t have to.
