Janice Hayes Kyser- Biracial Writer Navigates the Mental Health & Special Education System for...

Janice Hayes Kyser is a biracial woman who grew up with a front-row view of race relations. Born to a Black Alabaman father and to a White British mother, she saw firsthand how her mother’s White allyship educated others in the 60s and how her father was not treated as an equal in both the air force and in life in general. Janice adopted a black son from the foster care system when he was just three years old. She became a mental health advocate when dealing with her son’s PTSD and his special education needs by using her knowledgeable and compassionate voice to get involved on boards and in establishments that were often White-only. Words are Janice's passion and her saving grace. She’s an award-winning journalist whose articles have been published in USA Today, The Detroit News, The Seattle Times, and Essence Magazine, among many others. Janice has conducted media relations, speech writing, and reputation management for several Fortune 100 companies. Currently, Janice is a freelance journalist based in Las Vegas where she writes about a variety of topics including social justice, race, health, and adoption.
