This is Jeryka. In 2014, she was addicted, incarcerated, and without hope.
Three years later, she and her husband welcomed a baby boy, Jeryka accomplished another year of sobriety, and celebrated her second anniversary at her job.
What changed? First of all, Jeryka encountered Christ in a way that radically changed her spirit. Then, she was connected with a small group of Stand in the Gap volunteers who helped change the way she saw herself.
