Finding Purpose in Unexpected Places
How do we find our life’s purpose when much of what happens in this world is beyond our control? What do we do when our dreams are crushed and our aspirations seem impossible to attain?
On Tuesday, April 9, 2013, YWCA Maricopa County will host Julie Erfle, creator of the website PoliticsUNCUFFEDD, as she shares her experiences of self-growth after the death of her husband, Phoenix Police Officer Nick Erfle, at the hands of an undocumented immigrant. Please join us for wine and hors d’oeuvres at Vincent’s on Camelback, as we listen to Julie’s remarkable journey.
Julie’s political commentary has been featured on local news shows Sunday Square Off and Politics Unplugged, KJZZ radio, the Phoenix New Times, the Huffington Post, and Yes! Magazine. Her blog is a member of azcentral’s AZC Voices and the BlogHer Publishing network.
In 2008, AZ Magazine named Julie one of Arizona’s most fascinating people for her work with politicians, police groups and coalitions in the push for a national immigration reform policy. She continues her advocacy, working with state and national organizations to change the dialogue on immigration and find solutions through legislative policies.
Julie is a former creative services writer/producer for Phoenix television stations KPHO and KTVK and a summa cum laude graduate in broadcast journalism from Minnesota State University Moorhead.
