SafeHaven holds its annual Legacy of Women Awards Luncheon to recognize women who excel in the Arts, Business, Education, Health & Human Services and Volunteerism.

 

 

 

The 2011 event was chaired by Diane Stow and was held at the Fort Worth Omni Hotel on October 14.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Last year’s keynote speaker was Tanya Brown, the youngest sister of the late Nicole Brown Simpson.  She gave a powerful speech of how domestic violence affected her family. We look forward to another engaging and talented keynote speaker this year!
