AN ALL DAY SAFETY EVENT !

For many Georgians, the thought of what they can do, in order to make a difference , when it comes to safety might sound overwhelming. Most of the state's citizens are programmed to be more reactionary, instead of precautionary.

The idea of being able to voice our opinions are frutal, and rightfully so, unless you join hundreds of individuals and organizations on the front steps of the Georgia Capitol on March 8, 2013, at 8:30 am, and in unison be heard about the changes in safety that needs to be addressed by our state representatives. Come out and share your thoughts, as well as, learn information to take back to your communities.

Prevention Industry partners are invited to the Georgia Capital Building for a day of networking with each other and officials. Individuals and organizations are encouraged to attend the event regardless of what your area interest.

Prevention Industry Day at the Capital is an incredible opportunity for people in different areas of prevention to come together and share information with other individuals and organizations in the following areas of intervention:

Youth services
Elder care
Re-entry programs
Drug / alcohol intervention
Housing
Outreach and missionary ministries
Services for families and/or children
literacy, adult education, tutoring
Prison intervention
Economic counseling
Mental health services and programs

ALL OTHERS ARE INVITED!
You play a vital role in our State as you give assistance to Georgians. Prevention Industry Day is a chance to build collaborative relationships with persons in your own industry and other prevention areas as well as with our legislators. Intervention Day affords a unique opportunity to share ideas with legislators as well as network with persons who offer Georgians a wide range of services.

THERE IS NO ADMISSION FEE, and tables start at only ten dollars. Participants will have an opportunity to address the gathering. Much of the event will be filmed for You Tube and other media, meaning that the services you offer the community will reach a wide audience. We will update you by email when video presentations from this event will be on You Tube and send you links to share with your networks.

COME EARLY OR COME LATE, BUT DO NOT MISS
PREVENTION INDUSTRY DAY AT THE GEORGIA CAPITAL

One of the state's top talk show, TV personalities, and community leaders, Mr. Fred 'V' Man reveals, "Join us on Friday March 8, 2013, for Prevention Industry Day at the Georgia State Capitol. Share how your organization is serving Georgia. Meet your legislators and and introduce your company or organization to the thousands of visitors at the Capitol daily."

He adds, "This is a free community event (tables require a minimal fee".

There will be a 'Who's Who' in attendance, included Ms. Tricia Bailey, CEO of MT Innovations, a national no texting while driving campaign corporation. She started the successful outreach program, with her college daughter, Morgan Matthew. The fact is that texting while driving has surpassed underage drinking seven to one, and to be sure thousands of teenage deaths this year will be connected to this travisity.
