Jerri Nicole Wright was born in Detroit, Michigan and has lived in Lasing since 1976. She survived a suicide attempt at the age of fifteen, and it wasn’t until years later when she sought help. Jerri struggles with Schizoaffective Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, PTSD, a Severe Mood Disorder, and Posturing Behavior. Therapy taught her how to start the process of acceptance, and gives her the tools to cope with overwhelming feelings.

Jerri tells her story with “Amazing Grace” at the This Is My Brave Lansing show in 2018.
