Thank you to our 3 Key Lunch sponsor: About our Speaker: Ms. Jones’ experiences as a foster youth made her feel that her voice meant nothing. Having been overlooked and written off as another statistical failure as a teen mother, Deanna realized something had to change and cultivated the resilience she had drawn on over the years. Deanna learned that only 3% of foster youth go on to obtain a college degree and she was determined to be among that number. Despite the barriers of being a former foster youth and teenage parent of two children Deanna obtained her G.E.D. Deanna was dealt another blow as she learned that her oldest child was Autistic. Deanna continued to navigate those systems to meet her children’s needs and continue to achieve her goals. From there, Deanna went on to graduate from The Ohio State University with her Bachelors’ of Science in Social Work and her LSW. After graduating Deanna immediately went to work for the agency she emancipated from! During her tenure there she worked there in various departments for over 11 years and eventually earning a Master’s Degree in Public Policy and Administration. Deanna has had the privilege of having sat on both sides of the table, in varying roles. As a foster child , as a kinship provider and as a caseworker gives Deanna a rare and valuable experience very few possess. Deanna is now a licensed life coach, author, co-owns a hair store and looks to share her expertise to ensure best practice for the children and families served by the child welfare system. Deanna share tips through an entertaining and engaging presentation leaving attendees with practical application and motivation to have success after detour!
