Congratulations to CNN Hero Sr. Tesa Fitzgerald at Hour Children

My former boss Sr. Tesa Fitzgerald has received one of the highest honors- CNN Hero. Sr. Tesa, Founder of Hour Children in Long Island City has given her life and her career helping incarcerated women and their children. She is a truly wonderful human being both inside and out. Although we only got to work together for a short time (as the program I ran was eliminated with a revision to the NY State Budget), Sr. Tesa has had a major impact on the person I am today. Her willingness to give and the goodness she shares with others should be an example for all of us. Please enjoy the video below.
