I Am Strong

In her last days, Traci wrote an interactive book while undergoing her chemotherapy treatments, knowing that it could be a beneficial tool to encourage kids. She wanted to give a gift to counselors, teachers, and parents that they could use as encouragement in their conversations with kids. Traci believed that all kids are strong and resilient; they just need the adults around them to help them see this. The proceeds of this book will continually fund this scholarship to benefit resilient students for continuing their education beyond high school. Click here to purchase I Am Strong
