School Sisters Of Notre Dame Luncheon Brings Attention To Sex Trafficking In Our State
Sex trafficking happens around the nation and in our state but unless it has directly impacted you, we don’t talk about it much. We hear from two Milwaukee-based women working hard to get victims the resources and support they need to stay out of the path of crime and lead fulfilling lives.
More information about sex trafficking in our state will be shared at the Women’s Leadership Luncheon on Thursday, March 7th, from 11:30am to 1:00pm on the campus of Mount Mary University. Attending is free but registration is required by February 28th.
