Telling Amy's Story
"Telling Amy's Story" is the powerful national documentary about the domestic violence homicide of Amy Homan McGee.
Following the launch of "Telling Amy's Story," the Verizon Foundation is working to empower employees to further the impact of the program. You can help by:
- Lobbying your local PBS station to air "Telling Amy's Story"
- Hosting screening events for your friends, family, book club, church group or other community group.
To assist you, we have developed template materials, discussion guides, branded materials and step-by-step instructions on how you can help, and centralized points of contact are available to help with any step along the way.
