We are honored to recognize Julie Weil, founder of the Not Just Me Foundation, as the recipient of the 2025 Suzanne L. Keeley Community Service Award.

A fierce advocate and survivor, Julie has turned personal tragedy into purpose—working tirelessly to prevent sexual assault, support survivors, and champion systemic change. From testifying before the U.S. Senate to founding Butterfly House, Palm Beach County’s first centralized forensic exam center, Julie's voice and vision have created lasting impact in the fight to end sexual violence.

Her work exemplifies the spirit of this award and the legacy of Dr. Suzanne Keeley—promoting healing, safety, and resilience in our communities.

Join us in celebrating Julie's extraordinary commitment to justice and healing. 💜
