Recognized for Institutional Public Service by APHA
The fundraiser follows national recognition for the organization's work: Jennifer Ann's Group has been selected to receive the Institutional Public Service Award from the American Public Health Association's Injury Control and Emergency Health Services Section, honoring organizations whose leadership in injury and violence prevention has had a lasting impact on the field. The award will be presented Nov. 3 at the APHA 2026 Annual Meeting in San Antonio.
"National recognition is wonderful, but what matters most is what happens in living rooms and classrooms because of that work," said Dr. Elizabeth Richeson. "Every dollar raised on Oct. 10 goes directly toward keeping these resources in the hands of the young people who need them."
Proceeds from the Oct. 10 event support Jennifer Ann's Group's continued work creating free tools including its Gaming Against Violence® initiative that teach young people about healthy relationships, consent, and bystander intervention.
When: Saturday, October 10, 6:30 pm.
Where: St. Luke Catholic Church Hall, 930 E. Redd Rd.

About Jennifer Ann's Group
Jennifer Ann's Group (jenniferann.org) is a nonprofit organization working to reduce teen and youth domestic violence through new media, including interactive video gaming, podcasts, and direct community outreach.
The organization was founded in memory of Jennifer Ann Crecente, a high school honors student who was murdered by an ex-boyfriend in February 2006. Her father, Drew Crecente, established Jennifer Ann's Group to keep her memory alive by educating young people about the warning signs of dating violence and connecting them with resources for help.
