    April 2021 Report from District 10 Honorable Cheryl A. Rios Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota District 10 is hosting a High Five Membership Drive! We have challenged all of our members to reach out to 3-5 of their friends within the judicial system to try and recruit more members to join NAWJ. We will follow up with a Zoom Membership Meeting in May to answer questions members may have and try to increase membership in District 10. Kansas: • Jacy Hurst was appointed to the Kansas Court of Appeals. Hurst will be the first woman of color on the Court of Appeals. A Lawrence resident, she is a partner with the law firm Kutak Rock LLP in Kansas City, Missouri. Much of her legal career was spent representing businesses in the employment, health care and regulatory areas. She has also provided pro bono legal services to individuals in criminal and family law cases. However, her experience with the courts system came much earlier, growing up in a single-mother family with parents who didn't graduate college. "As a child, I experienced divorce, violence, homelessness, poverty early on, and those were my introductions to the law," Hurst said at her confirmation hearing. "That's where I met my first lawyers and judges." She said her experiences led her to volunteer at a domestic violence shelter, and all that drove her to practice law. • District 10 Director, Cheryl Rios, received the MANA Ring of Honor Award from MANA, A National Latina Organization. In honor of Women’s History Month, MANA recognized the rapidly growing number of MANA women who have served or now serve in an elected or appointed office of public trust.

  • Global Rights for Women 2018 Annual Report
    2 0 1 8 ANNUAL REPORT 1 OUR IMPACT BY THE NUMBERS Global Rights for Women works with leaders around the world to advance women and girls' human right to live free from violence through legal reform and institutional and social change. Thanks to your support, our work has included: international 62 partners 5 years of operation focused on 26 countries ending violence where we have worked to systemically against women address violence against women and girls including Australia, Georgia, Kosovo, and girls Latvia, Moldova, Morocco, and North Macedonia in 2018 Over 1,000 legal professionals trained 65 million women impacted by improved laws, policies, and practices Dear Friends, 2 In 2018, Global Rights for Women's mission came alive across the world! Country by country, GRW influenced law reform and systemic change to end violence against women and girls. GRW responded to a request from leaders in the Republic of Georgia to address a deadly gap in implementing the country's domestic violence law -- the need for law enforcement agencies to quickly identify situations most likely to result in serious harm to victims. In response, GRW developed a risk assessment tool that enables Georgian police to identify the most dangerous domestic violence cases. As a result, police can now intervene more quickly to prevent further injury and death to women who are most at risk. Very importantly, GRW worked closely with victims of domestic violence in developing the risk assessment tool, to make sure it addresses domestic violence as it is actually experienced by Georgian women. GRW and its Moldovan partners launched the country’s first court monitoring program, and issued a report evaluating the courts’ response to violence against women and girls.
