Jody-Ann was brought up in a slum ‘Yaad’ in Jamaica but through education opportunities managed eventually to achieve two degrees, a BSc and an MSc before being selected for the Rotary programme. Jody-Ann, who has experience of working in high conflict, disenfranchised urban neighbourhoods, would like to find ways to help children living in slums throughout the world to overcome the handicaps and prejudices of their situation.
