“…I believe every Latina needs a motive as to why they are doing this to be successful. My motive was to escape my childhood and help my mother move forward…As a clinical social worker, I strive to provide quality care to everyone. Growing up with limited funds, I understood the value being treated with respect and dignity. I use my privilege and position of power to advocate for those who are oppressed by society.”- Jessica Hardial, MA, LCSW, PhD (c)
