Author visit with Jackie Stebbins- Writer of "Unwillable"

May is mental health awareness month. Join writer Jackie Stebbins as she shares her experience with autoimmune encephalitis. Jackie M. Stebbins was living her dream as a nationally recognized family law, criminal defense, and civil litigator. But Stebbins’s career as a lawyer abruptly ended in May, 2018, when she was diagnosed with a rare brain illness, autoimmune encephalitis. Stebbins persevered to make a remarkable recovery and turned herself into an author and motivational speaker. Open to all ages, a book signing will follow the author talk and books will be available for purchase.
