Prez Says for November 2023
The time for witches and pumpkins has passed. Welcome to November, dark skies, frost, Black Friday, Veterans Day, and Thanksgiving! I hope you and your family enjoy a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.
On November 7th at 7:00 PM at the North Bellevue Community Center, our General Meeting program will be "Our Need to Rethink Fraud in America" presented by AARP. This will be a hybrid meeting (in-person meeting and Zoom meeting combined). Fraud has reached a crisis level in the US. Millions of victims are losing billions of dollars every year to the hands of transnational criminal enterprises. As a society, our tendency to blame the fraud victim for experiencing the crime has led to us deprioritizing it. In this webinar, AARP will discuss the nature of victim-blaming in our country and how changing this narrative could lead to a fundamental transformation in how we combat fraud. Please join us for this informative meeting.
