"I want to extend my sincerest thanks to you for helping us bring Kevin Berthia to Trinity County. The way that our high school and junior high school kids responded to him was enough to bring tears to one's eyes! It was such a success! I really believe that his message resonated with this group and will, at the very least, encourage a discussion amongst students regarding the topic of suicidal ideation and the importance of noticing the small but telling changes a person can demonstrate when he or she is in distress."

Dr. Nancy L Cohen
Our#MeToo Moment: Turning Outrage to Action
Nancy is the Leading National Expert on gender and American Politics, as well as an award-winning author. Her books,
"Delirium: The Politics of Sex in American","Breakthrough: The Making of America's First Woman President" have explored women's rise in American Politics, the impact of women's leadership, and political polarization. Nancy's articles and commentary have been published in the Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, and Rolling Stone, among many others, and she has appeared on MSNBC, NPR and many other broadcasts. She speaks frequently at conferences, universities, and book festivals across the nation.
For her work in advancing women's leadership, she was recognized with the 2016 Women for A New Los Angeles award.
Weaving together her own #MeToo story with her expertise on gender and leadership, Dr. Nancy L. Cohen provides a practical blueprint for tackling America's epidemic of workplace sexual
harassment
.
We have all witnessed that the #MeToo movement has exposed sexual harassment in the workplace and the public is appalled. Most Americans are discovering that sexual harassment of women is an ageless, far-reaching issue.
This allows a window of opportunity to harness women's rightful outrage and men's new awareness for meaningful change.
What to do?
The good news is that there is a simple cure. We can leapfrog over the long arduous work of incrementally changing culture.
Nancy's presentation ask the questions and provides the answers.
