Abstract
Shannon’s recovery journey includes being a daughter of violence and substance abuse, a mother, a family advocate and caregiver to a brother who was a quadriplegic for 22 years, a personal struggle with hyperactivity and deep depressive episodes, and, most recently, a mother with a child who carries a diagnosis. She works as a Senior Peer Communications Specialist in California and has also dedicated herself to educating others about behavioral health and recovery through her many presentations, workshops, and conference talks on the topic.
