At this meeting:

1) we will briefly talk about the help DVSSN has provided to survivors of domestic violence since last semester's wildly successful Pumpkins & Poker poker tournament; 2) we will talk about our up-coming Happy Hour fundraiser; 3) we will discuss advocacy, education, and outreach projects that are coming down the pipe-line; 4) we will ask for suggestions for this semester and beyond from all of you; and 5) we will be available to discuss openings in the board for those students who are interested in helping lead DVSSN next semester.

Thank you for all your help this Fall with Pumpkins & Poker. We look forward to another great semester, helping to close the gap for domestic violence survivors in need and promoting the field of domestic violence law.
