Testimonials (1)

The staff and volunteers at CCCKL Hospice Services had the opportunity to listen to Jon speak. His heartfelt story of abuse, trauma, PTSD and healing was truly inspirational! It helped us to understand the many levels of pain and the importance of sharing his story. We all need to learn that it is okay not to be okay and the power of talking about it without stigma. Jon's story helps us to be more compassionate to our first responders, our clients, our neighbors and our community. I highly recommend hearing this presentation it was amazing!!
