The autobiography of Ronald Hummons
Ronald Hummons grew up on the rough streets of Over-the-Rhine in downtown Cincinnati. He attended Woodward High School where he dropped out in the 11th grade. His childhood, charged with poverty and abuse, led to his loneliness and eventual alienation from his peers. At age eleven, he ran away to escape the abuse from his adoptive father. His childhood filled with trauma taught Ronald survival skills that he would need to guide him through his difficult, dark journey in life. Ronald lost his oldest son to suicide in 2015 and has dedicated his life to children suffering from mental illness and awareness to the impact of childhood trauma in adults.
THE FACE OF TRAUMA
Recent scientific research has unequivocally proven how traumatic events at a younger age can affect a person’s development. Stunted growth, depression, and mental disorders are common in children that suffer from terrible childhood experiences. Ronald Hummons will dive deep into the effects of childhood trauma and take you on a journey of healing.
