Human Trafficking - A Complex Problem 5/19/19

The Brattleboro Area Jewish Community and the Brattleboro Area Interfaith Alliance will join together to present a training to help people understand the complex issue of human trafficking as modern-day slavery. This training is free and open to the public. It will take place from 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday, May 19, at First Congregational Church, 880 Western Ave. in Brattleboro Vermont.

Vermont State Representative (Bennington-Rutland) Linda Sullivan, whose expertise is sought nationally and internationally, will share her knowledge on this topic. She will offer a training to help attendees understand this complex issue and begin to figure out how people, at the grassroots level, can help end this crime against humanity. Sullivan has designed outreach programs for victims, designed and delivered training programs for judges and attorneys, served as an expert witness on every aspect of this topic and directly supported victims of human trafficking.
