Saw this today on Josie and TLC's facebook page.  "TLC has named Mrs. North Carolina, Josie Sanctis, its Awareness Ambassador, in a partnership created specifically to raise awareness of hair pulling and skin picking in schools in 2013."  Josie is spreading the word and I'm so excited for her!  I'm praying that many of those who suffer alone in silence will finally know that their hair pulling has a name, that they are not alone, that they are not "crazy","weird" or a "freak"... Congrats, Josie on becoming TLC's Awareness Ambassador!  I know you'll make the trich community proud!
