Help Get the Word Out About Our Informational Session Re: Stopping Human Trafficking
Our club is hosting a free, informative event addressing the issue of human trafficking. The event, which is scheduled for Wednesday, October 23 at 6:30 P.M. at the Crowne Plaza Hotel Atlanta Perimeter at Ravinia, includes both a private showing of the movie “8 Days” and a candid discussion with federal, state, and local law enforcement. We would like to have as many club members as possible attend this special event. Please share this with your neighbor, family and friends by forwarding this special edition newsletter on to them.

The purpose of the program is to build public awareness of sex trafficking in our communities, to learn about local resources, and to recognize danger signs and potential preventive actions.
Thanks to Charlie Augello for leading this initiative - and to his committee that includes Griff Ransom, Louise Barden, Tina Philpott, Anne Glenn, Kathy Brandt and Erica Brown.
