Faces of NLU: Meet Whit Devereaux

An NLU graduate and working mom uses her story of survival and the skills she gained from her degree program to empower victims of domestic violence.

When I was a student at National Louis, I was in an abusive relationship,” Whit says, “and my teacher helped me realize my worth by simply caring enough to ask how I was really doing. Once I graduated and made it out of that situation, I made it my mission to spread domestic violence awareness, prevention, and recovery resources through my books and workshops with local schools, churches, and nonprofit organizations.
