Phoenix is another step closer

The KZN/Durban North Cluster had a fantastic Women's Day function on 14 August 2008. The day was held in partnership with the Phoenix Crisis Centre. The theme this year was "Another Step Closer...". Domestic violence still plagues the community, so we used the day to workshop concerns around domestic violence and how best to empower women to break the cycle of crime. Our guest speaker was Betty Rawheath, ARMSA representative and magistrate from the Verulam Court. It was a day filled with fun, laughter and give-aways - ice-breakers were facilitated by Kim and Deshree. The women were also treated to a hand therapy session by the Phoenix staff.
