Spotlight On.

 

Ladies Night. August 28th

Starting at 7:00 PM.  Books, books, and more books!  We have many readers in
this group and we haven't updated our book lists in awhile.  Bring the names
of the books you have read, are reading, or have heard about and share with
your girlfriends.

 

Do you know about: 

 

*The recent changes in the law related to marijuana? 

 

*Pregnancy protections? 

 

*Accommodations in school (what kind do you need, how do you secure them)? 

 

*How to deal with the police?

 

 

Join the Black Empowerment Committee for answers to those questions and many
more at our Town Hall on September 13th, 2021 from 7:00pm -8:30pm.
