This piece is no longer for sale. It has been delivered to Ms. Leschak.
Here's what some people said in 2013 about Megan and her work.
"Partnering with the Maryland Office of the Public Defender, Megan Leschak has used her OSI-Baltimore Community Fellowship to start a pre-trial court diversion program called Bmore Free. The program has identified low-income defendants suffering from PTSD, in order to move them from judicial proceedings into treatment specifically designed to cope with trauma."
Megan is now a nationally acclaimed licensed social worker, working all over the country, helping numerous low wealth people with her kind heart and her in-depth knowledge, to find some peace of mind as they move through the criminal justice system, and hopefully find some healing along the way. She's a big deal in her field.
She's also married to one of my best friends, Craig Acorn. And she's a sweetheart.
She definitely gets a stick.
