	Tulsa Shimmy Mob members with CAN staff

On May 13, Tulsa Shimmy Mob performed around downtown Tulsa as part of International Shimmy Mob Day. The performers accepted donations to raise money for CAN while raising awareness of CAN as well.

Jennifer Powell and Ana Bryan with the Tulsa Shimmy Mob visited the CAC on June 14 to demonstrate their performance for the staff and present their donation. 

On June 15, Rose Turner and David Glanz conducted a tour of the Children's Advocacy Center to 25 individuals from Leadership Tulsa participating in the "Journey to Safety Tour" (coordinated by the Child Protection Coalition).

The tour began at the CAC and participants learned about the Multidisciplinary Team and the Child Abuse Network. They then departed on a bus to visit the courthouse, DVIS, Youth Services of Tulsa and the Parent Child Center of Tulsa. The tour is a "behind-the-scenes" experience of the child protection system as seen through the eyes of an abused or neglected child.
