Betty Ford’s Son – ‘I should have known better’

WATCH – WE ALL SHOULD HAVE –

Nov. 11, 2021 – Friday night, Ford will work to raise awareness as the Sunshine From Darkness event takes place. It’s a fundraiser started by the Lee and Bob Peterson Foundation. Over the last 15 years, they’ve helped raise $6 million for research and programs like First Step.

“That’s a big part of it, having the community support the event, and really addressing stigma which we do at the event,” said Jeffrey Peterson the president & CEO of the Lee and Bob Peterson Foundation. The CORT program hopes to break those stigmas. “We will be able to meet people where they are,” said Shawny Robey the president & CEO of First Step. “They have different needs, backgrounds, levels of trauma that have landed them in this position. This will be different because they will have very individualized attention.”
