About this event
The evening will include an award ceremony featuring special guests in honor of Susan Esco as the 2020 Charles Colson Servant of Hope Award recipient, a free screening of our latest documentary, A New Day 1, and a panel discussion exploring the unique challenges of women’s incarceration with experts and personally impacted female panelists.
Last year, some 10,000 Oklahomans returned home from prison. Right now, women are incarcerated at a very high rate in Oklahoma. The reentry process is neither simple nor easy, and we all have a role to play in helping our returning neighbors to reach their full potential.
Join us for an encouraging night celebrating hope for the women impacted by crime and incarceration in Oklahoma and learn practical action steps to help meet your community's needs!
Hors d'oeuvres and refreshments will be provided.
