Today we  are celebrating International Women's Day by highlighting a woman in our area that is making a difference. Denise Durel is the CEO & President of United Way SWLA. Denise is a known community leader and powerhouse at getting things done. She has a passion for making a difference for the people of Southwest Louisiana and will work all hours of the night and day to take care of those in need. In today's episode, District Attorney Stephen Dwight sits down with Denise to discuss all aspects of United Way, how she chose her career path, and who inspired her work ethic.
