MORE ABOUT KAIJUANDA
Kaijuanda is a true advocate for women and girls. She suffered from childhood issues & low self esteem that caused her to go in a direction where she would lose sight of herself and became a mother at the age of 15. She learned that she was living for a purpose bigger than herself. In 2005, she began her advocacy work and 2007, graduated college & obtained her Associates Degree in Applied Science/Business Administration. In 2008, she launched Drama Free D.I.V.A.S, Inc, a non profit organization that empowers young girls. Its mission is to "Stand Strong to Inspire Change."

In February of 2014, Kaijuanda was involved in a major car accident which the doctors stated would change her life forever. During her recovery she was told she would be paralyzed and would not be able to walk again. Although, she suffered a broken pelvic bone, broken neck, dislocated arm, staples and many bruises; Looking at her today you would not notice she had ever been in a wreck. She is living proof of what God can do and the poster child for overcoming obstacles.
Kaijuanda strives to be the best she can be. She has four amazing children and uses her life experiences to teach them early on what she wished she had known as a young girl.
