Monka Jean

Monka Jean is a retired educator who spent over twenty years as a counsellor working with diverse and high-poverty populations, as well as an educator in a New Mexico adult-correctional facility providing services for the juvenile population. Her experience mentoring these heroic teens and young adults, who struggle to survive the streets, has provided great insight and respect for these individuals. Her first novel, HOLE IN THE WALL, is grounded in truth and the characters are based on people she has known and loved. As heart-breaking and difficult as it is to hear their story, it will bring awareness to the plight of the thousands of young adults and children who find themselves without support or direction, left only with the grief of losing siblings to the system.
