FREE Community Education & Outreach Event: SAVE's Open Doors

SAVE (Safe Alternatives to Violent Environments) will 
hold its next 
Open Doors community education and outreach event on Thursday, April 24, 2014, at Super Suppers in Fremont.

This free presentation is an opportunity to meet SAVE staff, and learn about our programs and services that support survivors of intimate partner violence (domestic violence). A highlight of the presentation will be local high school students sharing how SAVE Youth Programs have made a difference in their lives. Guests will also have the chance to meet SAVE’s new Executive Director, Nina Clymer. This is a community event – all are welcome (ages 14 and up). Supper is included. To register, visit http://goo.gl/pNCIsA or call (510) 574-2262.

Open Doors guests will be inspired as they discover all the ways SAVE helps abuse survivors step away from 
violence and cross the threshold to lives that are safe and peaceful.
