Membership

This letter is to invite you to join or renew your annual membership with the Victim Services
Coalition. Despite all of us experiencing tighter economic times, we managed to have had a
wonderful year with significant accomplishments, thanks to you. The plain facts of the matter are,
when times get bad, crime increases. We need your continued interest and support of victims more
than ever to help us in our efforts to advocate on behalf of victims of crime throughout the 20th
Judicial Circuit.

Your membership is a valuable asset. It provides you the opportunity to attend local trainings and be
informed of trainings provided by the Office of the Attorney General. Our web site has been up-dated
and will provide you with the latest information. We love hearing from you, so please e-mail your
suggestions for local trainings to me, Brenda Gellinger, or submit your suggestions for training and
ideas for the web site when you send in your membership and membership registration sheet. More
information will be forthcoming in the near future.

We also invite your involvement with the Victim Services Coalition and hope you will attend board
meetings. If you are interested in becoming a board member, contact me at the phone number or
web site provided below.

Your support and participation are greatly appreciated and needed now more than ever. We ask that
you please complete the enclosed Membership Registration sheet with your updated information for
our records. If we do not hear from you in the next sixty days, your name will be dropped from our
membership roster. Please know that we would consider this a tremendous loss to the Victim
Services Coalition.

If you have any questions at all, please contact Mardene Zepp at 239-533-1205 or e-mail
vscoalition@yahoo.com

With sincere regards,
Mardene Zepp
President
