Who We Are
"When I was 13 years old, my birth mom spent several months in prison for drug possession. Immediately after she was released, she relapsed and died of a heroin overdose.
Her name was Katie.It wasn’t until college that I began to realize that her story is, unfortunately, staggeringly common. The Lookout Project is founded with her in mind."
