Some 120 people joined Unchained At Last tonight at Dinner and a Movie, to watch a film about forced child marriage and discuss it over dinner and wine with local survivors of forced and child marriage.
The event raised more than $15,000, all of which will be used to help women and girls in the U.S. escape or resist forced marriages and to end coerced marriage in America.
Emcee: Michelle Charlesworth, WABC-TV anchor/reporter
Honorees: Christine Brown and Shehnaz Abdeljaber
