Women's Leadership Council 2014 Events

JOURNEY TO SAFETY
Child Protection Bus Tour 

May 1, 2014
7:45 am to 1:00 pm

This event is a half-day tour of community organizations and resources involved in protecting abused and neglected children who have been removed from their homes by DHS and placed in protective care.

Participants on the “Journey to Safety” tours will travel by bus, visiting the Child Abuse Network, the Laura Dester children’s shelter, Youth Services of Tulsa, and the Juvenile Court.  
Attendees will walk in the footsteps of three children, hearing why each was placed in protective custody, what happened during their time in the child welfare system, and what happened as decisions were made determining their futures.  

The Journey events are organized by the Child Protection Coalition, an organization of 26 community agencies that treat, shelter, and protect abused kids.

Don't miss an exclusive WLC viewing of this impactful documentary. According to missrepresentation.org, "The film exposes how mainstream media contribute to the under-representation of women in positions of power and influence in America. The film challenges the media’s limited and often disparaging portrayals of women and girls, which make it difficult for women to achieve leadership positions and for the average woman to feel powerful herself."

*Note: This documentary has a TV-14 rating and includes material that many parents may not find suitable for children under the age of 14.
