About Donna Hylton
Donna Hylton is a women’s rights activist and criminal justice reform advocate. Donna speaks publicly about the issues
facing incarcerated women and girls and the significant impact the significant increase in the female prison population is
having on families, children and our communites. Donna’s own life took an unexpected and life-changing turn
when as a child she was lured from Jamaica to the United States. Her memoir, ‘A Little Piece of Light,’ tells the story of the childhood
abuse she endured, the spiral of events that lead to her incarceration and how she learned to live, love and
trust all over again.

This event is free and open to the general public.

Organized by Dr. Shenique S. Davis, Assistant Professor of Criminal Justice and Peer Success Coach, Leanna Feliciano.
