From the President
(Excerpts from Installation remarks, May 17, 2010)
This is a truly memorable ceremony for all of the new Board and officers. Now, let's set the
clock back about 9 years . . . The experiences of being a Court Appointed Special Advocate (now Children's Advocates) gave me the chance to meet many dedicated Council
advocates and to be involved with many different family relationships. We advocates were making a difference in children's lives--so I decided that it was time to
become a member of NCJW.
Shortly after joining, I was invited to join the programming committee, and suddenly I found myself
co-chairing the opening meeting. The
program took place on ---Sept. 11, 2001. (more) |
