Area residents have been hard at work
laying the groundwork for the SafeHarbor Child Advocacy Center. And this
week, their hard work as recognized when Lady Vols
basketball coach Pat Summitt has agreed to serve as
spokeswoman.
The child advocacy center would
assist children who are victims of suspected sexual or physical abuse and
severe neglect. It would serve children in Sevier, Jefferson, Cocke and
Grainger counties.
Summitt
has volunteered to record public service announcements encouraging support of
the center. She will also serve as keynote speaker at a fund-raising event to
be held in the spring, Koester said.
With Summitt's
help, the center may get the help it needs to get up and running. Thanks
coach.
