**We would have loved to hold this event at the Center for Family Violence Prevention, but unfortunately they are in dire need for an upgraded facility. The center has occupied the same building for more than 30 years, and it now requires major renovations. The center is also running at maximum capacity, they are even having to move women and children to other counties in order to find them shelter. Because of this, the event will be held at the Washington Civic Center instead, **

The Civic Center has a drop down screen and provides Wi-Fi
