THE PROGRAM for Women and Families, Inc. held its second ‘Syncopated Rhythms’
jazz brunch and auction, at the Lehigh Country Club on November 4th. "Miss
Jazz", Toni Harris and her fellow musicians entertained the 170 guests,
including Mayor Ed Pawlowski and Lisa, the Honorable Jane Baker, the Honorable
Max Davison and Barbara, The Honorable James Knoll Gardner and Linda Kay, The
Honorable Robert Steinberg and Linda DelBalso Steinberg, Judge William Platt and
Maureen, Larry and Hazel Hilliard, Sandy and Pat Beldon, Steve and Barbara
Diamond and Board President Susan Harris and Bill.
Board member Carlene Morrow introduced our 2007 honoree, Judith Ruhe Diehl.
Judith described the conditions in the women’s prison in the early 1970s and the
early efforts of a small group of women to change how the women were treated and
housed. Judith’s husband and son, as well as many friends of the Diehls were
also present. A graduate of THE PROGRAM’s Day Program, Kelly Regan Latham told
the audience what THE PROGRAM had done for her and her family, and related the
positive differences in her life as a result of participating in the Day
Program.
Local glass artist Carlene Morrow’s Tiles for Change was displayed.
Carlene’s husband John was also at the brunch.
A good time was had by all. Thank you to everyone who attended and all those
individuals and companies that donated to THE PROGRAM’s event.
