Daughter, granddaughter, sister, friend, and student are some of the hats that Leah Forney wears. A native of Queens, New York, Leah is currently residing in South Carolina. An author, writing and speaking came naturally to her. Leah Forney is the oldest girl of six siblings and grew up without her mother and father raising her. Early in life, she learned the importance of having a relationship with Jesus Christ from her maternal grandmother who raised her in the church. Leah's love for writing came at a young age when she would pen poems to release the pain she felt from not having her parents in her life. Never knowing where her writings would take her, Leah penned her first book. Leah has lent her voice in numerous projects from being a sexual assault awareness advocate to acting in her church's drama ministry. Leah serves as an advocate and co-founder of the SAAVE (Sexual Assault Advocacy for Victims Everywhere) Me movement. As Leah continues to accept the calling that God has placed on her life, she is open to seeing where her gifts and talents will take her. She released her first book Unapologetically Me: Living, Owning, & Walking in my truth on April 1, 2017. Her newly released book Courage to Win: Igniting the winner within. She has started a community based project called Project Give Back which was created to help meet the needs of those in her community. She can do it all and has a heart for service.
