“My life has been ever changed in overcoming social degradation and humiliation of jails, institutions, and death along with the stigma of being HIV positive. I have been living with HIV for over 25 years. Despite everything, I have been afforded grace to Rise Against All Odds. I am Brenda Flowers-Dalley, the Founder of Rising Against All Odds, a community-focused organization right here in Deland, FL. I hold heartfelt commitments to justice, equal access, and equity in health, health care, education, employment, income, housing, and overall in everyday matters that just make life better.”
