A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE ROSALYN S. MOSES, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE FAMILY RESOURCE CENTER IN CAMDEN, ON BEING NAMED WINNER OF A JEFFERSON AWARD FOR PUBLIC SERVICE AND TO COMMEND HER FOR HER SELFLESS SERVICE TO THE CITIZENS OF SOUTH CAROLINA.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that Rosalyn S. Moses, executive director of the Family Resource Center in Camden, has been named recipient of a Jefferson Award for Public Service; and

Whereas, the Jefferson Awards are a prestigious national recognition system honoring community and public service in America. Created in 1972 as "Nobel Prizes for public service," today their primary purpose is to serve as a call to action for volunteers in local communities; and

Whereas, from each community, the Jefferson Awards Board selects one local winner to represent his or her community and be honored as part of national ceremonies in Washington, D.C. Fifty to sixty U.S. Senators present these winners their awards; and

Whereas, Ms. Moses will represent South Carolina at this year's national ceremonies on June 18 and 19; and

Whereas, the Family Resource Center in Camden, a children's advocacy center, offers forensic interviews, medical evaluations, individual victim counseling, nonoffending parent counseling, family counseling, and a twenty-four-hour crisis line. Ms. Moses will utilize the national platform afforded her by the Jefferson Awards to shed light on the importance of eradicating sexual violence, child abuse, and teen pregnancy and so advance the worthy work done by the Family Resource Center; and

Whereas, grateful for the dedicated labors of Rosalyn S. Moses on behalf of South Carolina's families, especially its children, the House of Representatives takes great pleasure in saluting her on receiving this latest recognition, a coveted Jefferson Award. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate Rosalyn S. Moses, executive director of the Family Resource Center in Camden, on being named winner of a Jefferson Award for Public Service and commend her for her selfless service to the citizens of South Carolina.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Rosalyn S. Moses.
