A ROADMAP
FOR SURVIVING TRAUMA
"Grand Rising is an important story for young women who need to know they are not alone. Lakeesha Jones's lived experience sheds light on what it can be like to be born to inexperienced parents and how education is one of the keys to breaking out of generational cycles of destructive decision-making. She does not shy away from sharing her struggles with single parenting, getting out of debt, and mending her own mental health after years of several challenging experiences. Each illuminated struggle is paired with suggested introspective questions and resources for readers who are trying to live healthier lives or for those who know someone else in search of where to turn."
