Kevin Mackey/Lisa Jones Season 5 Episode 19

This week on the New Bridge Radio Show Kevin welcomes special guest Lisa Jones.

Lisa Jones is a divorced mom of three teens. All three of her kids have either a physical or mental condition that has and will need continued treatment. 

Her eldest son has struggled with diabetes, plus ADHD and Bipolar 2 disorder. 

Accompanying her son on his journey and living with his mental illness has been a life-altering experience for Lisa. 

Seeing the stigma, fear and dearth of services bestowed upon him and others like him has been stunning. 

As a result, affecting change, spreading knowledge and giving support has become Lisa’s mission. 

Lisa serves on the Board of Directors of a large mental health not for profit in New Jersey.   She is a very spiritual woman and a comedian who has learned to be resilient and diligent in her mission to create change.
