Profit that works to combat human trafficking has been awarded a grant from the department of justice.
Willowbend farms has been awarded over 7 hundred thousand dollars to continue to fight against sex trafficking in our area.
The organization is planning to build a human trafficking emergency response center, the first of its kind in our area.
Take sot "this is going to allow us to have a more responsive behavior towards helping someone instead of a reactive behavior where we need to contact someone to see if a domestic violence shelter has something open.
This takes us completely out of reactive mode, allows us to respond so we will be able to take someone to a secure location immediately."
If you suspect human trafficking report it to the police immediately.
If you see something say something.
