Stephanie Jones, a licensed mental health counselor and the founder of Women at Werk network, is a recent recipient of a grant sponsored by Beyoncé’s foundation BeyGood and the NAACP.
She told Action News Jax anchor Letisha Bereola she plans on investing the money back into our community and wants to help empower women.

I can't wait to share this story with you! It's about a woman who said, "why not me?" She set her eyes on a HIGH prize and won.
