The Office of Citizenship and Service-Learning at Missouri State and Jana’s Campaign are partnering to bring together community leaders and experts to open a dialogue regarding the issues of relationship and sexual violence to identify services, struggles, and solution strategies facilitating community-based problem-solving for this important issue.
Drs. Curt and Christie Brungardt of Jana’s Campaign travel nationally to speak against domestic violence. Their mission is to share the story of their daughter, Jana Mackey, a Kansas University law student whose life was cut short because of relationship violence and how they turned that tragedy into action. They will be introduced by MSU President, Clifton Smart.
The summit will begin at 8 AM with a welcome breakfast, sponsored by the Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning. There will be two sets of concurrent sessions starting at 9 AM and 10:50 AM. After a networking lunch in PSU Ballroom West, Drs. Curt and Christie Brungardt will discuss “Turning Tragedy to Action” at 1:30 PM in the PSU Theatre.
