Solidarity DC's Rockin' Happy Hour
Help empower DC-area adult and teen survivors of relationship violence and abuse at the next Solidarity DC happy hour benefit for Women Empowered Against Violence (WEAVE).
WEAVE works closely with survivors of relationship violence and abuse, providing an innovative range of legal, counseling, economic and educational services. The group helps survivors to use their inner and community resources, achieve safety for themselves and their children, and live empowered lives.
Solidarity DC is a new group committed to bringing the DC metropolitan area's progressive community together to have fun and achieve justice, one happy hour at a time! This will be their fifth, and it takes place Tuesday, Jan. 11, at 6 p.m., at Mackey's Public House (1823 L St. NW), with solidarity drink specials all night and musical entertainment. The suggested donation is $5, but no one will be turned away. For more information, send an e-mail.
DC Metro Action is published by Michael Schlesinger, a 32-year veteran of electoral and issue organizing who is committed to social justice and to increasing participation in the political process.
