The tragic loss of her son, Devin, in Feb 2018 to an accidental drug overdose was the catalyst for INTO LIGHT Project. Through the simple act of drawing, Theresa discovered the power of art and storytelling to change minds and hearts. The INTO LIGHT Project, while born out of tragedy, has provided Theresa with an opportunity to shed light on those lost to addiction so that their spirit, kindness, humor, pain, and compassion are seen. She is passionate about changing the conversation about drug addiction. She believes that ending the stigma and shame of addiction is the first and most important step in overcoming the disease. And that begins with empathy.
Debbie Simon’s son Scott was featured in the Florida exhibit of Into Light Project.
