About the Author

Mr. Hodish, graduated BS in Psychology: Alcohol and Substance Abuse and I am currently working on my MS in General Mental Health Counseling. Born and raised in an environment of poverty, abuse, racism, prejudice, and biases found a way to rise above these detriments. His inner-strength to succeed, his passion for life, and his compassion for his home town of Clairton Pennsylvania will be demonstrated in this book. Mr. Hodish made a conscious effort at a young age to establish an identity that would eventually be seen by others as a man of truth, honesty, dignity and respect, who will bring awareness to those still suffering from the invisible shackles that still enslave many in our society.
