7:45 am - Daybreak Breakfast
Everybody has a voice. It can be used to hurt, or to heal, and even to spark action. As we kick-off Domestic Violence Awareness Month let’s join our voices together for good. Collectively we can make a difference in the lives of victims and survivors in our own
communities.
Our featured speaker, Lisa Regina, has found a way to use her voice – a victim of domestic violence, she has become an advocate for the cause, and a supporter of victims and survivors everywhere.
Please join us for “Voices in Action”.
