Author name: Jayme Meredith

Jayme Meredith is a family advocate and grant writer with the Fathers Advocacy Network. She holds bachelor’s degrees in creative writing and sociology. Her work started with her best friend. They gave birth on the same day, had both used the same brand Vicks inhaler, and both tested positive for amphetamines. Jayme’s hospital ordered a confirmatory test, which traced her result to the inhaler. Her friend was alone, and instead of following the mandatory protocol, her hospital labeled her a drug addict and took her baby without that same testing. Since then, Jayme has dedicated herself to helping parents understand the child-welfare system so no family has to go through it alone.
