In 2011, Kiwan Fitch and the EmPOWERment Corp published the first of their series of Confessions books.  I was thrilled to be asked to write the forward to the book and used my voice to place the onus of poverty on the system rather than vilifying women and children who receive welfare benefits. 

Rarely are voices of the marginalized community heard.  Twenty women shared their lived experience with poverty and accessing help from the social safety net that was designed to safeguard the general welfare of American citizens.  The authors share their bold and courageous stories with us all.
