At five years old he witnessed his father violate his mother continuously; punching, stabbing, and shooting at her. No Place Like Hope is an engaging 1 to 2-hour keynote presentation for administrators/teachers/students in which Stanley recounts the brutality of growing up in a life of poverty, surviving the pressures of homelessness, multiple forms of abuse, drug addiction, institutionalization, and a felony conviction.
