Details
Becoming Ms. Burton is a testament to the impact one person can have on the lives of hundreds of others. Follow the story of a remarkable woman’s recovery and transformation as she becomes a leading figure in the national justice reform movement. Susan Burton’s life turned upside down when she witnessed the death of her five-year-old son. Without access to professional resources and consumed by grief, Susan turned to cocaine. It was only a matter of time before she was arrested and Susan spent the next fifteen years in and out of the prison system. She was never offered professional help or a treatment plan, but eventually found a private drug rehabilitation facility and began the process of recovery. Now clean, Susan has dedicated her life to supporting women who have faced similar circumstances. She founded a nonprofit, A New Way of Life, which operates five safe homes in Los Angeles for formerly incarcerated women and children. This wonderful program allows these women to gain an education and employment - without going back to prison. Becoming Ms. Burton: From Prison to Recovery to Leading the Fight for Incarcerated Women is an inspiring read that truly shines a light on America’s prison system.
