Meet the Pros Event (Women in Crisis)




   
  In the world today there are many issues that are affecting our society. Most notably violence against women which i feel is a very important issue. Prior to Meet the pros event i knew little about this issue but with the enligtenment of Allison Shelley and Melissa Turley i feel like becoming an advocate against violence on women. The story on how women in Nepal go through genital mutilation and also are outcast after their periods was really heart-wrenching. The meet the pros event took place on April 25th 2013 and a mass audience of students and faculty alike attended and also voiced there opinions. Many of my peers are actively viewing different pathways to try and help the issues going on across the globe. I also would like to try and raise a fundraiser this summer to try and eliminate the violent acts, and also educate women on health and give them the resources to succeed.
