Hi folks, we have a very special class planned for 1/15 . In light of the Pittsburgh synagogue massacre, and other gun related violence over the country.

Our guest speaker is Mr. Drew Diamond, the current Director of the Jewish Federation of Tulsa. He previously had been director of security for Union Public Schools, As well as a former police chief for the Tulsa police department, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and for the Police Executive Research Forum in Washington, D.C.
