Marcel Reid Definitely Showed Up |
Sometime later, and most unexpectedly, Marcel herself become a whistleblower. This inspired her to take all that she had learned at the GAP meeting and, over the years following, to create her own organization. In 2012 they conducted their first summit with a very small audience, just a few whistleblowers, and the support of only three organizations.
This July, their four-day summit will have 70 organizations supporting them and close to 1000 participants.
Since they began in 2012, more and more states are instituting laws to protect whistleblowers and the safety of the American public is in much better shape because of these heroic individuals. Marcel’s organization has done wonderful things in just seven years and we will watch with great enthusiasm their continued activities.
We encourage anyone who would be in or near Washington DC between July 29th and August 1st to attend. You will be glad you did!
Watch for a profile of Marcel and her organization in our September issue.
