Corinne and Sally’s Testimony Workshop
October 23, 2021 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm CDT
Free
We invite you to our testimony workshop with Corinne Gasper and Sally Schindel who have become inspiring speakers and advocates after the loss of their children from the effects of marijuana. This workshop is for anyone willing to share their testimonies about how marijuana impacted their lives but doesn’t know how to take the first steps.
The effects of marijuana and other drugs are real and increasing. The general public doesn’t understand the devastating impacts. So many times it’s hard for us to share honestly how today’s more potent and more dangerous marijuana has affected our lives and families. We understand that sharing your testimony can be painful and feel overwhelming. This workshop will provide you with support, encouragement, anonymity, and the tools to simple steps to raise awareness.
Corinne Gasper is the director of Jennifer’s Messengers, an organization dedicated to honoring her daughter Jennifer and other people killed by marijuana-impaired drivers. Corinne was recently awarded the 2021 Moxie Award from The Drug Free America Foundation
Sally Schindel, is the founder of Marijuana Victims Alliance and on the National Marijuana Initiative Speakers Bureau and is an advisor and volunteer for multiple organizations including Every Brain Matters. Her son, Andy, died in 2014. Andy’s suicide death is linked to marijuana addiction. He left a powerful message that Sally wants all to know. Andy said, “Marijuana killed my soul + ruined my brain.”
