PHS Teen Leadership Hosts Women Together/ Mujeres Unidas Speaker
Coach David W. Munson has been quoted as saying, “If you need resources, you need to visit your school librarian often.” Little did Coach Munson know that those brief visits would act as a catalyst to bring a representative from the community agency Women Together/Mujeres Unidas to Pioneer High School.
Marcela Balquinta, the agency’s Prevention Education Program representative, presented information to Coach Munson’s 5th Block Teen Leadership class, leading discussions and facilitating activities relating to the day’s topic. The program seeks to prevent sexual assault and abuse through awareness education.
