The Oregon CURE Annual Meeting will be held on:

Sunday, October 14, 2007 3 pm to 4:30 pm

Hillsdale Community Church, 6948 SW Capitol Highway, Portland, Oregon 97219

Guest speaker: Dr. Rachel Hardesty

It is extremely important for families and friends of Oregon’s 13,500 prisoners to know that there are people on the outside who care and are working towards Restorative Justice. It’s very important to attend, and please invite others including those in support groups. A firsthand account to your loved one about the happenings of the meeting will be a great topic for your next visit!

Invited are a sizable group of DOC staff and it is good for them to see family members who have a vested interest in the safe, healthy, and productive return of the people in their care.

There will be a raffle table – tickets are $2.00 each or 3 for $5.00 – and there will be some intriguing gift baskets and items to raffle off! This is a primary method of funding the CURE organization in Oregon, so it’s a very significant event.

CURE is a wonderful organization of very caring families and friends of prisoners that periodically meet to help provide support and information. The name stands for Citizens United for Rehabilitation of Errants and a link to their website can be found HERE.
