As we near the end of the year, a time when we pause and reflect on all the wonderful things we have to be grateful for, I wanted to share with you an experience that I'm grateful for and invite you to help me in paying it forward to other teens, young adults, and women who need it.

A Note from Impact Bay Area's Vice Chair on #GivingTuesday
Impact Creates Community - Help Us Share It

"I worked up the courage to take the class because I wanted to have the skills to defend myself ... What I got out of the experience was that and so much more - the unexpected camaraderie of the women who took the class with me, the caring and empathetic teaching staff ... and the everyday life skills that have helped me set clear boundaries and walk with the full confidence of Impact backing me up everywhere I go."
