Resource Specialist - Dutchtown

I’m Ny’Sha aka Molly and I grew up on the Northside of St. Louis and moved to the Southside when I was 14. I was drawn to violence because I miss the safety I felt growing up. I want so desperately for the next generation to feel as safe and free as I did sitting on the front porch, jumping rope or simply enjoy the day worry free.
