The Salmon Creek Hospital Foundation is hosting the luncheon from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sept. 13 at the Hilton Vancouver Washington, 301 W. Sixth St.
In 2009, Legacy began performing medical assessments for children who had been sexually abused. In 2011, it expanded the service to children who had been physically abused or suffered from neglect. The program is led by Dr. Kim Copeland, a pediatric emergency medicine physician.
The speakers will include Copeland, Clark County Prosecutor Tony Golik, and Laurie Cornelius, director of children and family services at Clark College.
