The Projects

Hello everyone,
My name is Leslie Johnson. I am a single mom who resides in the Bronx. I live in a housing project called Mckinley Houses. I've been here for alittle over 9yrs. I am a receptionist in a nursing home. I have 3 children Janelle 23,Cody 17, Leeann 15. I often wondered if there are other mother's like me who are low but middle class and are rasing children like myself in the projects. The everyday struggle to protect your children from drug dealers, prositutes and crack heads. To show our children that their is a world out there other than what they see in their environment. I'm hoping that their are other parents who can relate to my struggle. I will be writing about life in The Projects so stay tune...
