Join us as we welcome Denise Brown as the Keynote Speaker at the 25th Anniversary of the Mending Broken Hearts with Hope luncheon.
Denise Brown’s sister Nicole Brown Simpson was murdered in 1994 outside her Brentwood home, along with her friend Ron Goldman. Nicole’s ex-husband O.J. Simpson was arrested and charged with the murders. The highly publicized “Trial of the Century” revealed years of verbal and physical abuse that Nicole had suffered during her marriage. O.J. Simpson was acquitted of all charges, but in a civil lawsuit in 1997, he was found liable for both deaths. He died in 2024, shortly before the 30-year anniversary of the murder of Nicole.
Since early 1995, Denise has traveled the country, speaking about domestic violence and the death of her sister Nicole. Her work has helped to bring about change as well as secure the passing of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). Her commitment to raising public awareness has improved the quality of life for survivors of domestic violence and she remains committed to banishing the darkness and ending the silence of this horrific crime.
