Many of our young people believe that suicide, drugs, or self-deprecation is solution to their loneliness and lack of resources. Fonda Royster conquered being known as a street kid, dirty kid, unwanted kid until one person finally heard her voice. Her voice was crying out for support and finally landed on ears that would listen and hear. Her spirit would not allow her to give up and now she is a listening ear and a hand for other street kids who are crying! Fonda Royster is a very present help in this time of trouble for the marginalized people in Lucas County. **References to Drugs, Sexual Abuse and Domestic Violence are mentioned**
