The guest speaker for the February 15, 2025 meeting of San Bernardino Republican Women will be the esteemed S. Ashley Gilliam, Advocate and Educator. The meeting will begin at 11:30 and take place at the Elk’s Lodge.
Having grown-up during the civil rights era, Ms. Ashley has witnessed first-hand the invaluable role of strong traditional families, and how the family is; 1) an essential component in the character development and civic maturation of our youth; 2) the building block for strong neighborhoods and schools; and 3) the chief instrument for combatting a growing social ambivalence to crime and social irresponsibility. She continues to be both a voice and advocate for All youth, with emphasis on Black American youth, which have been decimated by the breakdown of the family unit. She strives to provide pride in history, with a strong sense of purpose.
