This week we had the opportunity to have an Informed Impact Series touching on domestic violence, assault, abuse and protection. Shontel Brunson-White from Atlanta Victim Assistance, Inc. and self-defense specialist, Beckey "Zee" Zollicoffer, gave us hard facts paired with some lessons on how to protect ourselves. We are so thankful for the opportunity to join together and approach these topics with an open mind and the motivation to change the statistics. This evening would not have been possible without our wonderful sponsor, Holland & Knight LLP . #impact100atlanta #impact100 #makeanimpact #jenniferisstillintimeout
