This free webinar one of the “Third Friday” community training events hosted by BBCAHT and STAC to inform and engage the North Florida community and beyond. We are happy to extend this invitation to friends and colleagues – please join us!

It is no secret that vulnerable populations are much more at risk of being trafficked than others. Two groups that fall into that category are refugees and unaccompanied minors. People who are forced to flee leave behind their homes, their community support networks, and often end up socially and culturally isolated. They may lack access to resources, livelihood opportunities, and even legal status. These and other factors contribute to making refugees and unaccompanied minors targets for traffickers. Please join us for a discussion about the intersection between refugees and unaccompanied minors and human trafficking.

Presenters:
Kristina Bailey, Anti-Trafficking Program Supervisor, International Rescue Committee (IRC) in Tallahassee;
Kristina Montes, Child Protection Coordinator, South Florida, IRC in Miami;
Cristobal Perez, Deputy Dir. of Programs & Data, Coalition for Independent Living Options

Sponsors: STAC in affiliation with Big Bend Coalition Against Human Trafficking and the International Rescue Committee.
