You're not alone!
You are not alone in this journey of recovery. Hiding only makes the process longer and it pushes you further into isolation. You're not the only one that has felt they were alone and had no one to turn to or felt they may be judged by the decisions made. We at "The Dedric R. Jackson Foundation" will treat you like a winner no matter your yesterday. We believe in you, and we are here to take this journey with you.
LEAP INTO A NEW TOMORROW
Sometimes in life, our greatest fears are the what ifs. Often times, it's easier to doubt ourselves rather than believe we can achieve our goal of overcoming obstacles in order to be free. Freedom starts by taking a leap of faith knowing you're going to land on the other side which is your RECOVERY.
His
Story
Dedric R Jackson
Dedric Jackson was born to the proud parents of Robert and Doranne Jackson. He was born and raised in Cocoa Florida. Dedric's life took him on a journey which led him down a road of substance abuse. His family loved him and stuck by him even when they didn't know what to do to save him. One day they decided to give him to God, and he was given an opportunity to turn his life around and he did just that! He was blessed with a job with a company that treated him like family of which he loved. He went on and married his Queen NeNe. Shortly after getting married, Dedric started having some neurological issues that sent him to the hospital where they discovered he had a mass on his brain. Surgery was scheduled and performed and later that morning, he suffered a massive stoke which caused other complications that resulted in his demise. He left the ones he loved to cherish his memories: His Mom and Dad, His son Devontae Jackson, Sisters: Denise Kelley, Treena Jackson, a host of Nieces and Nephews, and a bonus Sister and brother, Ma Bet (Bonus Mother), bonus brothers: Ronnie and Jeramie as well as his wife Katrina Jackson. He made us all feel special in his own way. We love him and will always cherish what he showed all of us and that was real love.
