It's Global and It's Local: Human Trafficking

May 04, 2012

Director Sherry Ludwig reports that over 130 educators, students, experts, victims and like-minded community groups gathered at the San Diego County Office of Education on Sat, April 28, to explore the 3 P's of human trafficking: prevention, prosecution and protection. The workshop was a full day community conference on human trafficking and the sexual exploitation of women and children in San Diego.  

The day began with a screening of the film, Indoctrinated: The Grooming of Our Children into Prostitution (by Jim Ellis), and continued with education panelists, presentations on global Issues, law enforcement experts and ended with a panel on rescue and restore.  The film and its accompanying study guide are available for a minimal cost of $8 to cover duplication and mailing.  To download the order form click HERE
 
Kudos to Anne Hoiberg and Myrra Lee, workshop organizers and longtime activists in support of human trafficking awareness, and to all members of the La Mesa-El Cajon and San Diego Branches who helped to make the day such a success.  The workshop was supported in part by an AAUW CA mini-grant and a contribution from the International Advocacy Program budget.
