On September 14, 2012, I traveled and spoke with Jeanette Pai-Espinosa, President of The National Crittenton Foundation at a meeting in Washington DC. The meeting was with The Coordinating Council on Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention.
The National Crittenton Foundation was honored to be invited to attend and kick off the second meeting of the National Advisory Committee (NAC). NAC members are appointed by the Attorney General Eric Holder to advise the Office on Violence Against Women on how to reduce and address the exposure of children and youth to violence. At the meeting held last week in Washington, DC, six young women from the Crittenton Family of agencies had the opportunity to open the meeting up by sharing their personal stories of exposure to violence to the NAC members and advocates who filled the ballroom at the Fairfax Embassy Row Hotel.
