Since October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, the September meeting will focus on that issue and how we can help save lives. We will hear from Jackson Katz, a well-known and respected domestic violence prevention advocate who started the Mentors in Violence Prevention (MVP) program. GGS members and guests will view his TED talk: Violence Against Women — It’s a Men’s Issue that presents a different understanding of domestic violence. We also expect a speaker from a local domestic violence shelter. Reminder – all monthly GGS programs are free and open to the public. Guests are welcome.
The Advocacy Action will be collecting non-perishable food and new toys and books for children ages 1 through 17 in shelters.
