Dave Pelzer

Presentation Length: 1 hour – 1 hour 30 minutes

This rare heart-felt program is given by a man whose life was saved by a system that many ridicule as being useless and incompetent. This highly emotional presentation pays tribute to those who have dedicated their lives to making a difference in the life of a child, while at the same time educating the general public about the challenges faced by those in their chosen field. Dave carefully weaves the story of how his life was saved by teachers, a school nurse, the police department, social services, and the foster care system. This is the perfect keynote for those within the system who are in need of a positive shot in the arm from a man who, too, has dedicated his life to helping others.

Objectives:

• Pay homage to the countless individuals who are on the front lines in their battle to save the children.
• Encourage others to get involved in their community by revealing the importance of their assistance.
