Betty Hanks is a survivor of years of horrible abuse in her family home. Nearly 11 years ago, God began to work in Betty's heart, to show her her value in His eyes and to walk her through the painful process of healing those wounds. It has been a long, painful journey, but nearly 8 years ago, Betty felt a call to minister to others who suffered they way she had. Since then, she has mentored and shepherded women who are looking for healing. God has been faithful to walk with Betty throughout all the years of her life, and she is blessed and privileged to lead women to experience the healing power of God as she has. Betty is married to her high school sweetheart, Steven, and they have an 21-year-old daughter and a 17-year-old son, and a 1-year-old grandson.

Karen first became involved in advocacy work after observing the harm that was caused by many bills in the California legislature that were proving destructive of the family and traditional family values. Fearing for her own children, and the children of other mothers and families, she became involved with Concerned Women for America, and took a role as Legislative Liaison for Eagle Forum, to help fight against absurd government policies. Karen England currently serves as the Executive Director of Capitol Resource Institute, where she has worked hard to advocate on behalf of family values and pro-family legislation in the state of California for well over a decade. Through Capitol Resource Institute, and its subsidiary Capitol Resource Family Impact, she has been a key leader in advocacy work in the California and Nevada legislatures to help mobilize citizens to stand up for their values in government policy. At CRI, Karen has carefully planned and led the annual City on the Hill Youth Leadership Conference, which is designed to equip Christian youth with knowledge of the legislative process in California, and to teach important skills of advocacy, lobbying, and rhetoric to high school students. Additionally, she is responsible for the creation and expansion of the “Citizen Day at the Capitol” program, which is designed to train and equip average citizens to understand important issues in state politics and learn the importance of communicating with their state representatives.
