Metropolitan Organization to Counter Sexual Assault (MOCSA) held its Community Luncheon on May 5th. More than 1,000 guests gathered for the event, which was held at the Muehlebach Tower of the Kansas City Marriott Downtown. Ann and Josh Rowland served as the honorary chairs, and Monica Gray and Tanesha Ford were the event co-chairs. Denise and William Marshall and Leah and Arlan Vomhof served as the community support committee co-chairs. The keynote speaker was Jodi Kantor, New York Times investigative reporter. On the evening prior to the event, the Rowlands were the hosts for the Patrons’ Party at their lovely home. Proceeds support MOCSA’s work to improve the lives of those impacted by sexual assault and abuse and prevent sexual violence in our community.
