A heart-wrenching but important story on love, loss & survival written by one of our Founders, Jan Collins:
“Don’t pretend the tragedy never happened. Don’t NOT say something. But if you’re going to say something, ask permission first to speak about the victim. Don’t just ‘barge in,’ because there are ‘good days and bad days’ for the survivors.
“Don’t ever say what happened was ‘God’s plan.’ Just don’t even go there,” says Hartness, recalling a stranger who showed up at her family’s house after the tragedy and blithely announced that it was “all part of God’s plan.”
If you don’t know what to say, just use these words, “I don’t know what to say.” That might be enough.

It has been 42 years since that October afternoon in 1977 when Carlotta Hartness and her friend Tommy Taylor were shot to death near a baseball park in northeast Columbia. Tommy was 17 years old. CarlPowerful.
It’s another #FoundersFriday and today we’re featuring Ashley Jacobs, FIRST ☝️ female Administrator of Beaufort County!
Why does Ashley think there should be more women in leadership? She says, "We need more women in leadership because women are half the world’s population, but around the globe, they aren’t represented equally in positions with national, state, or local governments, corporate boards, or senior management. In city and county governments, less than 20 percent of Chief Administrative Officers are women even though 40 percent of Assistant CAO positions are held by women, and women make up 60 percent of MPA programs. Research shows that diverse leadership results in better performance, better decision making, and better governance." 📊📈
Thank you, Ashley for your continued support of South Carolina Women’s Leadership Network! 🤗
