Our overarching
mission in producing the show is to develop a cooperative sense of
community (rather than take an adversarial approach) among all members
of the community with a special focus on advocating for common sense
practicality on
sex-offender issues.
We welcome the opportunity to
interview representatives of victim's advocacy groups, attorneys,
public officials, those who are on the registry and others who
have a personal story to tell or useful information to share about
community programs and events.

issue in Arkansas.
