How can busy individuals make a dent in human rights abuses?
Reagan Demas, Director of the International Justice Mission's Operations in Africa and a Stanford alum, will make a powerful presentation of the work of IJM and how intervention is possible. A reception will follow Mr. Demas's presentation.
Mr. Demas will also hold a 'Justice Workshop' on Saturday Nov. 12, 10:30-11:30 AM at the Graduate Ccommunity Centre. The Workshop will describe the practical aspects of engaging in interventions and restoring victims to wholeness.
