Foster Care Victim Speaks Up.

Published: Dec. 4, 2021, 1 p.m.

"I stood on that bridge, thinking about ending the pain. I was 9 years old."

Jessica Grew up immersed in addiction.

"I remember knocking myself out on a prison toilet, on purpose, I didn't want to be there."

Tune in this week and listen to Jessica

#takeofftheblinders around the traumas inflicted on our youth by a broken system.

We'll talk about how it failed her, and what she's doing now to make a difference in the lives of kids that came up as she did.

Viewers' discretion advised on this one friends because we are lighting a candle, and walking into the darkness this week right here, on Hard Knox Talks.

Buckle up.
