Jodi was only a child when she was orphaned and taken into the care of a religious organization that hated everything that she was. They abused her physically and emotionally, robbed her of her culture and identity, and left her with emotional scars. This upbringing led to a life on the street, addicted to heroin and selling her body to feed its ever-growing chemical dependency. Stuck in this vicious circle with no way out, Jodi was helpless in the grasp of society's biases. Useless social systems seemed designed to keep the needy in their place. So, she lives on the razor's edge, only ever one misstep, and one unfortunate interaction away from becoming yet another sad statistic that no one bothers to keep track of.
In a life like Jodi's, what are the chances of her actually meeting someone who cares enough to see beyond the track marks, beyond her emaciated body that once stood tall and proud in its cultural heritage? Perhaps, someone caught in a vicious cycle all their own could understand...
With gripping imagery and stark detail, Jodi's Story is one that needs to be told. Just trying to survive, doing whatever needs to be done, Jodi reveals the humanity that most people don't want to consider.
