The Life That Hope Built: Hasan Davis’ Journey
Written By: Tim Herrmann, Lloyd Memorial High School
The Rotary Club of Florence, serving all of Boone County (@FlorenceRotary), on Monday, October 28, 2024, at noon invites you to join Hasan Davis (@hasandavis), CEO & Founder of Hasan Davis Solutions, for an inspiring journey fueled by hope. As a child facing multiple learning challenges, food and housing insecurity, and a pre-teen arrest, his path seemed heartbreakingly predictable. But thanks to the “Hope Dealers” who intervened, Hasan defied those odds and achieved what he calls the “JD Shuffle”—transforming from Hasan Davis, Juvenile Delinquent, to Hasan Davis, Juris Doctor. Come ready to laugh, cry, cheer, and shout! You won’t be able to deny the transformative power of hope—and the role you can play as a Hope Dealer.
Hasan is a “Hope Dealer,” dedicating his career to youth justice and empowerment. He served as the Commissioner of the Kentucky Juvenile Justice system and is an Annie E. Casey Children and Family Fellow. Using his own experiences navigating youth systems with learning challenges, Davis inspires and empowers youth and their adult champions. He is the author of “Written Off: How One Man’s Journey Through Poverty, Disability and Delinquency is Transforming the Juvenile Justice System.”
