CLINTON – Programs for Rotary International’s noon Monday luncheons this month will address adverse childhood experiences, food insecurity, crime victims rights and staying healthy, the club announced this week.

Luncheons are scheduled for noon each Monday at the Tuscany Event Center. The public may contact a Rotarian to join the luncheons as a guest.

Leslie LaShelle-Mussman, Prevention Director with the Area Substance Abuse Council, will speak on adverse childhood experiences Monday and will explain the role resiliency skills and training play in addressing them.

Regan Michaelsen, Executive Director of Information, Referral and Assistance, will speak Monday, Oct. 14 about the Backpack Buddy Program, which was created to address childhood food insecurity. Through this program, nearly 200 area students receive a bag of food to take home each weekend with pre-packaged meals so children will have well-balanced healthy meals to prepare for themselves during weekends.
