Profiles in courage

Here, we present a list of the Profiles in Courage series written by our friend Joan Collins. Joan started writing her articles a few months ago because she wanted to document the human aspect of the lacrosse case and the toll it has taken on so many individuals. In all cases, her profiles reflect the courage shown by individuals against adversity and against all odds. We thank Joan for taking the time to write these wonderful profiles and hope to see more of them.
