Excellent presentation! You touched on so many pain points that I have experienced as a woman and mother, and witnessed as a health care professional. My children were stolen by CPS and my rights wrongfully terminated 12/2019, and I have spent my time since then networking and researching to figure out solutions to the many problems in our society. This presentation offers so many insights that I have known to be true and pulled them together so that they can be observed and understood by others! Thank you Jessica! And Thank you to the Institute for making these materials available for the public!!
