4. The Center for Progressive Renewal is hosting “Creating A Healthy Environment” – Protecting all God’s Children. It’s a topic that’s hard to address, sexual abuse in the church, but it a problem that isn’t going away.  Dr. Jaime Romo, an author and leading voice in the field of preventing sexual abuse, believes that there are better ways to address this problem, and that change is possible through “creating a healthy environment” in our congregations.  This is much more than just having a prevention policy but about real transformation.  Register now for this timely webinar.

Jaime Romo, Ed.D. is a Commissioned Minister for Healing and Healthy Environments in the Southern California/ Nevada UCC Conference. He works with survivors, supporters, clergy lay leaders, and parents to protect children from abuse and live and learn in healthy environments. His most recent books are: "Healing the Sexually Abused Heart: A Workbook for Survivors, Thrivers, and Supporters;" "Parents Preventing Abuse;" and "Teachers Preventing Abuse."

The lecture is 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. $9.99 a person. Register by clicking here. The Center for Progressive Renewal is located at 3605 Sandy Plains Road, Suite 240-148. For more information, call 888-249-8244.
