Anita, a stalwart and unwavering individual, has been profoundly and indelibly marked by the calamitous and devastating events that have beset the life and ultimately, the untimely and premature passing of her beloved son, Jonah Barley, a victim of the heinous and senseless Rochester, New York shooting, an occurrence that has left an unbridgeable chasm in her life and has forever altered the trajectory of her existence.
Before embarking on a journey of advocacy and activism in the aftermath of her son's tragic demise, Anita first seized the opportunity to enrich her educational experience at Monroe Community College, a prestigious institution renowned for its comprehensive curriculum and cutting-edge programs.
