Good morning,
SLEDSVN will be meeting next Tuesday, November 16, at 9am-10:30am on Zoom.
We have three great speakers this month. First, Arlene Baer and Patti Teper will discuss the Healing Hearts Bank and how this resource can be accessed by SLEDSVN members. Next, Dr. Jill Messing, Director of the Office of Gender-Based Violence at Arizona State University, will present on the Pair Studies Project and how we can help.
We hope to see you then!

On Wednesday, November 3, at 9am, Katie Wessling from the CVC and Robert Boedeker from LSEM will be presenting at the St. Louis Family Violence Council Meeting on the significant changes to the Order of Protection laws in Missouri this year and local impacts. These changes can effect all survivors who are considering filing for an order of protection.
Instead of hosting the same information within the same month, SLEDSVN is promoting this training and encouraging any members to attend. All are invited to attend - also, please share widely with your co-workers!
