Sacramento Women Take Back the Night is recruiting volunteers for the October 13th Rally. It will be an evening of remembrance, celebration, and action to stand against all forms of violence against women and children.
A Volunteer Orientation will be held in the parking lot of the Sacramento Native American Health Center at 2020 J Street (the site where the event will be held) from 3-4 pm on Sunday October 7th. After the orientation we will have a BBQ/Button-Making Party to prepare for the event.
