More about Jennifer:"IT IS THE MISSION OF THE JENNIFER CENTER TO PROVIDE TEMPORARY SHELTER, FOOD, CLOTHING AND COUNSELING FOR UP TO EIGHTY (80) YOUTH FROM AGES 0-18 WHO HAVE BEEN SEXUALLY ABUSED AND/OR NEGLECTED BY MEMBERS OF THEIR FAMILIES OR CARETAKERS OR MEMBERS OF THEIR FAMILIES OR CARETAKERS’ SOCIAL CIRCLE. IT IS OUR BELIEF THAT CHILDREN WHO HAVE BEEN SEXUALLY ABUSED ARE MORE LIKELY THAN THOSE WHO HAVE NOT TO BECOME SEXUALLY DYSFUNCTIONAL AS ADULTS AND TO ALSO COMMIT CRIMES OF A VIOLENT OR SEXUALLY VIOLENT NATURE DUE TO BASIC PHYSIOLOGICAL MISAPPROPRIATION.

HISTORY AND INNOVATION.
BEFORE HE WAS SIXTEEN YEARS OLD, FONZE WAS MOLESTED BY TWO DIFFERENT MINISTERS AT HIS GRANDMOTHER’S CHURCH. BOTH PREDATORS WERE MALE. UPON REVEALING THE ABUSE TO HIS FAMILY, HIS GRANDMOTHER DID NOTHING ON HIS BEHALF TO CONFRONT THE MOLESTOR’S. CURIOUSLY ENOUGH, BETWEEN 1965 and 1969, FONZE’S MOTHER, JENNIFER KNIGHT AND HER TWO SISTERS HAD ALSO BEEN MOLESTED AS CHILDREN AND BY THEIR MOTHER’S SECOND HUSBAND, THEIR STEPFATHER, ON SEVERAL UNOBSERVED OCCASIONS. AFTER CONFRONTING THEIR MOTHER ABOUT THE ABUSE, SHE NEGELECTED TO REPORT THE INCIDENTS TO THE PROPER AUTHORITIES. AS A RESULT, FONZE, JENNIFER AND HER TWO SISTERS GREW UP CONFLICTED AND CONFUSED ABOUT THEIR SEXUAL APPROPRIATIONS. ON JULY 9, 1980, JENNIFER CROSSED SUITLAND PARKWAY IN PRINCE GEORGE’S COUNTY, MARYLAND AND WAS KILLED, BY SUICIDE, IN A HIT-AND-RUN ACCIDENT. SHE WAS ONLY TWENTY-TWO YEARS OLD. THE FOUNDER AND PRESIDENT OF THE JENNIFER CENTER IS JENNIFER’S SECOND CHILD AND ONLY SON, A SURVIVOR OF SEXUAL ABUSE HIMSELF, PIANIST-SINGER-SONGWRITER & ACTOR- FONZE ONTERELL.
