JACKSON SEED OF FAITH

Jackson Seed of Faith Inc., was founded based on my life experience as a mother of four young children, a husband fighting war in Iraq and being under suspicion of child abuse.

I recalled on December 22, 1990, taking my eleven month old son to the hospital due to the left side of his body looked swollen. Instead I was accused by a doctor of injuring my son. The doctor’s focus was to protect the child. However, I was very confident that I didn’t injury my child. He was in the hospital for two weeks in protective services.

During this time my life was interrupted by daily social service agencies in my home. I was very cooperative yet curious about how the system works because I was not guilty. This experience was very challenging for me, but I realized that the hidden weapon of CHILD ABUSE AND NEGLECT is a lack of knowledge.

My experience provoked a desire in me to promote and inform communities by gathering and passing on information through community activities and by brining parents and children together to share my knowledge. I am now an advocate for CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION with Jackson Seed of Faith Inc. I am continuing the mission. WE PLANT TO GROW AND WE GROW TO SUCCEED.
