New phase in Missing Women Inquiry

The Missing Women Inquiry enters a new phase this evening.

The director of a new community court in Oregon kicks off six public policy forums aimed at protecting vulnerable women.

Doreen Binder is a member of the Oregon attorney general’s sexual assault task force.

She’s also the director of an organization housing the state’s first community court dealing with safety, homelessness and prostitution.

Tonight’s interactive presentation includes a discussion about building trust with marginalized women and her work developing the court, which is set to open this Friday May 4th.

The forum runs from 6:30 to 8:30 in the Peter Kaye room at the Vancouver public library.

It will also be streamed online at missingwomeninquiry.ca.
