Veronika Scott has done some remarkable things. At 24, she’s the founder and CEO of The Empowerment Plan. As a child of addicts, she says, she was “set up for failure,” in a hole she had to climb out of. But when a college class required her to design something that filled an actual need, she created a new beginning for herself and many others.
This is part of a series, One Stitch Closer, developed by Gap, of inspiring stories of women making the world a better place.
