When asked about his ‘why’ – Will shares, “I experienced adverse childhood experiences due the divorce of my parents at the age of 8 and was blessed to have natural supports including a strong single father, family, and a community that cared for and challenged me to overcome. Because of that I am called to do the same for others that have experienced similar or even worse trauma.”
