Catherine Manett

Catherine graduated from Hofstra University with a bachelor's degree in creative writing. Since then, she started a career as a caseworker for Suffolk County's Department of Social Services. In her position, she assists her community’s most vulnerable adults with connecting to services that meet their essential needs. Through her work, Catherine has found a passion for helping those who battle homelessness. Growing up on Long Island, it became clear to Catherine that the price of living in New York is unaffordable. Because of this, she decided to combine her passions of humanitarianism and writing to create a book series that both entertains and educates about social issues, thus, the birth of RUN AWAY HOME.
