For the record, Keisha Lonon’s life-altering testimony wasn’t just for the betterment of her life.
More than anything, it was for the advancement of others, particularly those who can greatly attest to the rash of obstacles through which she has gone and overcome.
As Lonon — a Washington D.C.-area author/businesswoman — explained during an interview this week with Making Headline News, it all started at a fundraising event for Crime Victim Rights sponsored by Network For Victims of Recovery of DC during which the president of Washington Hospital was hoping to cross paths with her.
Interestingly, he fielded a letter from a victim, who vividly disclosed how Lonon miraculously changed her life. Ironically, such an emotionally-driven letter is featured in Lonon’s new book entitled, Being A Victim By Just Being Me.
Keisha Lonon earned a Masters’ in Forensic Psychology, Health Advisory Board Member of Councilman Brandon Todd, and the Rise Project Advocate at NVRDC where she advocates for survivors/ victims. She provides awareness, resources, and tools for self-empowerment to those who experience homicide, sexual assault, domestic violence, human trafficking, & issues with crime victim rights.
As a highly motivated advocate, she has over 8 yrs of experience and was a victim of domestic violence.
