A dangerous and harrowing encounter at a local gift shop when he was eleven years old left Jesus Leon with a deadly secret. Hurt, alone, and scared for his life, Leon numbed his pain by losing himself in alcohol, drugs, and prostitution. Overlooked by state-sanctioned institutions and systems intended to help victims of abuse, neglected like many other low-income Latinos, Leon spiraled into cycles of suicide and substance abuse. I'm Not Broken follows Leon's heartbreaking and remarkable journey to win back his life, leading him to the steps of Harvard University. Recounting the extraordinary circumstances of his life, Leon offers a powerful, raw testament to the possibilities of self-transformation and self-acceptance.
