JaQuitta Williams is a television journalist, who worked in Atlanta, Georgia, for WSB-TV and WGCL-TV.
Williams was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2007.
Her cancer diagnosis was the trigger for her to become a spokesperson for healthy living. In 2009 Williams took an 18-month leave of absence from WSB-TV to fight her cancer diagnosis.
In July 2010 Williams appeared at an event organized by fashion for a cure, a non-profit dedicated to fight cancer that encourages survivors to appear or perform at its fund-raising events.
The organization encourages local groups to host fashion shows where all the models are cancer survivors.
Williams sang the Destiny's Child song "Survivor (Destiny's [Child song)|Survivor]" one month after she returned to work following her 18-month leave of absence.
Williams also appeared in a film directed by Robert Townsend, Musical Theatre of Hope.
