The 12th Annual Women Against Violence (WAV) Luncheon, presented by The GBS Group and Capital Group, was an impactful afternoon of community, connection, and commitment to supporting survivors and helping end human trafficking.

We were honored to welcome Haley Robson, an Epstein survivor and advocate, for a powerful fireside conversation with host Kristen Crowley. Through her personal story and continued advocacy for transparency, accountability, and survivor empowerment, Haley reminded us of the importance of amplifying survivor voices, confronting exploitation, and turning pain into purpose. Her courage and message of resilience left a lasting impression on everyone in attendance.

Thank you to all of our guests and sponsors for making this year's luncheon such a meaningful event. Together, we continue to raise awareness, strengthen our community, and create a future where everyone can live free from violence.
