Upcoming Events & Meetings
Our Bi-Monthly Meetings take place at: Mission Church of the Nazarene, at 6:30 pm, every OTHER month on the 3rd Thursday.

April's Meeting:
4/25 (DATE CHANGE!) | 6:30pm | Mission Church of the Nazarene
The Intersection of the Health Care Industry and Human Trafficking
Many victims of trafficking visit healthcare facilities — accompanied by their traffickers.

Do you work in a doctor's office or hospital? Do you know someone who does? April's meeting will be a great opportunity to learn more about how healthcare professionals are quite possibly the most strategically placed people to create a positive outcome for a victim.  The healthcare Industry is a major intersection with human trafficking. The good news is that our San Diego medical care professionals are organizing together and hosting training opportunities to learn about the issues and the red flags. Join us for this informative evening and meet some incredible people who are actively working to impact the outcomes for victims.
