Community Education Day - April 22 A CALL TO MEN is a leading national men’s organization addressing men’s violence against women, and the eradication of sexism, while maintaining strong coalitions with women’s organizations already doing this important work. A CALL TO MEN helps to organize communities in order to raise awareness and get men involved in ending violence against women. They believe that ending violence against women is primarily the responsibility of men. Although historically it has been almost entirely women who have been at the forefront addressing this issue, they think it is essential that men play a primary role in the solution to end it. We are excited to have Tony Porter, Co-founder of A CALL TO MEN as the presenter of our two workshops. Tony is an educator and activist who has worked in the social justice arena for over twenty years. He is internationally recognized for his effort to end men’s violence against women. You are welcome to attend one or both workshops. Lunch will not be provided.
