Freedom for Fremont x Laboratory to Combat Human Trafficking: October Training

Join the Laboratory to Combat Human Trafficking in collaboration with the Freedom for Fremont Anti-human Trafficking Task Force for an important training on how human trafficking is impacting our state and region. The crime of human trafficking intersects with many other vulnerabilities and experiences. Those who experience trafficking may also be victims of other crimes like wage theft, child abuse or domestic violence, they may be experiencing homelessness, or they may suffer from mental illness or substance misuse. Because these vulnerable populations often come into the purview of law enforcement, healthcare providers, child welfare, and other service providers, it is vital for them to receive this training. Please note: The first half of this training will be a human trafficking 101, open to the public (8:30-10:30). The second half (10:45-1pm) will be a deeper dive for those professionals most likely to come into contact with a survivor in their work.

We will provide breaks to allow you to help yourself to breakfast, lunch and snacks!
