ENDORSEMENTS
“Maria’s life came at a cost with a stolen childhood. Yet untrained camp counselor Jo Anne White dug deep within herself with her own doubts to reach a very troubled child as Maria. Chills ran down my spine as her pain reeled me in not only as an abuse survivor myself but led to my compassionate calling to “misfits” like her! Shunned, rejected, ostracized & abandoned by other children leads to self- abuse & biting with an inability to cope in a world that doesn’t want to see us. What I found most intriguing with my life calling & passionate purpose, is that Dr. Jo Anne helps us look deep within ourselves to overcome extreme adversities to find a way to reach this very troubled soul with a mission of HOPE to set other broken captives free!”

“I thoroughly enjoyed reading Dr. Jo Anne White’s chapter in “MISSION: HOPE: Finding Strength In Times Of Adversity”. To say I couldn’t wait to get to the next page was an understatement because this book was amazing. I too could relate, being the mother of a special needs little girl also called Maria. Dr. Jo Anne White’s chapter is written with compassion, empathy, sensitivity and understanding. By focusing on the challenges of a young girl with special needs that Jo Anne worked with demonstrates the ability for us to move forward and also positively affect and make a difference for others. Despite obstacles and challenges, hope is a way to give us the impetus to move forward and overcome them. Dr Jo Anne is a true inspiration to us all.”

“A MUST-READ. I highly recommend reading this thought provoking book of love, passion, compassion, and possibilities. The images and messages painted on each and every page have been indelibly engraved in my heart, mind and spirit. The stories help remind us to “never give up,” and that “where there is a will there is a way.” Dr. JoAnne White and the other authors’ ability to share these stories helped me remember that through challenges placed before each of us we become stronger. This one heartfelt story among others about how one camp counselor’s ability to think outside the box, her caring, compassion and deep desire to help this child in a most unconventional way is a True Gift!”
