We know, it\u2019s a busy time of year and there are lots of demands on your time. So we thought we\u2019d give you a few good reasons why you should come to the REACH Annual Meeting<\/a> next week.<\/p>\n

1. Good food: the venue and the snacks are provided by our good friends at the Massachusetts Medical Society<\/a>, and they\u2019re always a hit.<\/p>\n

2. Susan Fargo<\/a>\u00a0 \u2013 retiring this year from the Massachusetts State Senate, she has been an ally of the anti-domestic violence movement for as long as she\u2019s served. We\u2019re sad to see her go but thrilled to be presenting her with the Ruth Bigwood Voice for Justice Award.<\/p>\n

3. Joan Heilbronner \u2013 the force of nature who organizes all of the food for REACH\u2019s annual Holiday Gift Party<\/a>, she likes to serve behind the scenes but we\u2019re bringing her out into the light to present her with this year\u2019s Virginia Bigwood Voice for Justice Award.<\/p>\n

4. Pat Tutwiler<\/a>\u00a0 \u2013 the principal of Wayland High School<\/a>, he\u2019s a big supporter of our Peers Against ViolencE<\/a>\u00a0 program promoting healthy relationships among teens and a great friend to the organization, and we\u2019re excited that he\u2019s accepting this year\u2019s Mary Young Voice for Justice Award.<\/p>\n

5. Survivor Speaker \u2013 hear directly from a young woman who has overcome her experience of domestic violence about the importance of the supportive services she received.<\/p>\n

We hope you\u2019ll join us next Thursday at 6:30! Let us know if you\u2019re coming by calling Courtney at (781) 891-0724 ext. 104.<\/p>\n

Did we miss any reasons? If you think of any we forgot to mention, leave us a comment below. We\u2019ll see you next Thursday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
