Latonya Jones

Welcome. I’m Latonya — an author and human service professional dedicated to empowering women and inspiring young minds through empathy, self-awareness, and storytelling. My work centers faith, healing, resilience, and personal growth, with a focus on helping readers navigate emotional wellness and reclaim their voice.

I share this mission primarily through writing as a blogger and published author, as well as through community service. I am the founder of The Stuff a Purse Project, a nonprofit initiative supporting women, seniors, and underserved populations. With over a decade of experience in the social services industry, my professional background continues to inform the stories I tell and the communities I serve.

My writing spans both adult and children literature. For women, my books explore healing, boundaries, faith, and self discovery. For children, I create stories rooted in warmth, values, and meaningful life lessons designed to nurture confidence and imagination.

In addition to writing, I am available for podcast interviews, panel discussions, small group gatherings, and collaborative media features related to authorship, faith, healing, and community impact.

Outside of work, I enjoy laughter, good food, and meaningful time with family. I am a proud member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., and I value service, creativity, and lifelong learning as guiding principles in both my personal and professional life.
