Join us for a meaningful evening of Women Inspiring Leadership & Learning where we will hear from Renée Boheme, the executive director of Corrie's House, whose vision is for every victim/survivor of sexual exploitation to have the opportunity to access the transformative care for recovery and healing.
During the event, we'll be assembling shower caddies with personal care products and other needed supplies that will be needed for their residence. In order to cover some of the expense for these supplies, we have increased our normal event fee by $10. Thank you in advance for helping us support their mission.
