Erin Merryn...A Voice for the Voiceless

The audience will hear how Erin Merryn survived childhood sexual abuse for 6 1/2 years and how she broke the silence and found her voice after going down a very destructive path. After finding her voice, Erin made it her mission to be a voice for the voiceless and went after passing legislation across America to educate children to speak up and tell if they are abused, known as Erin's Law

Erin will be signing/selling her books for $15 each.
