SUMMARY:Follow the Money: Find the Traffickers Human Trafficking and Financial Exploitation – PART 2
DESCRIPTION:The Big Bend Coalition Against Human Trafficking (BBCAHT)\, The Survive and Thrive Advocacy Center (STAC) and Florida’s Department of Children and Families invite you to participate in BBCAHT’s Monthly 3rd Friday Community Training Program: \nDate: December 17\, 2021\n1:00 PM – 2:30 PM Eastern / Noon – 1:30 PM Central \nThis 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! \n Webinar Registration\n“Follow the money\, find the traffickers” is a maxim in the world of human trafficking. It is vital for everyone in the community\, not just financial institutions and law enforcement\, to understand how human traffickers financially exploit their victims as a form of control and abuse. Traffickers launder proceeds from exploited youth and adults\, force victims to open accounts\, force youth with clean credit histories to apply for credit cards\, entwine victims their money laundering schemes\, and evade financial system safeguards. This program will cover: how human trafficking relates to financial exploitation\, who is most at risk and their vulnerabilities\, how traffickers recruit victims\, how to report human trafficking and financial exploitation\, and long-term impacts. Social services\, child welfare professionals\, anti-human trafficking advocates\, law enforcement\, and all those who are contact points for vulnerable populations and people who are trafficked need to know how this abuse and exploitation occur so they can protect them. Presenters: Marina Anderson\, Regional Human Trafficking Coordinator for Northeast and Northwest Regions and Christy Gillis\, Circuit 7\, Community Development Administrator\, FL Department of Children and Families \nNOTE: this is Part 2 of a two-part training series. See Part 1 which focused on the financial sector. \nSponsors: STAC in affiliation with Big Bend Coalition Against Human Trafficking and the International Rescue Committee. Contact: STAC at stac@surviveandthriveadvocacy.org or 850-597-2080 \nAUDIO will be provided through your computer. \nAttendance will be limited to the first 1\,000 people who join this event. Please join early.\nClick here to register with us for this meeting or copy and paste this link into your browser: https://tinyurl.com/yckmrrp7 \nIf you have technical questions or concerns\, please contact Center Support staff at centersupport@usf.edu

SUMMARY:First\, Do No Harm: Facilitating a Trauma-Informed Response
DESCRIPTION:December 17\, 2021 from 2 PM ET to 3:30 PM ET\nPresented by Jane Anderson\, AEquitas Attorney Advisor\, and Vicki Ybanez\, Executive Director of Red Wind Consulting\, Inc. \n Webinar Registration\nTrauma is a direct result of the abuse and exploitation that offenders inflict on victims of intimate partner violence and sexual assault. This acute trauma\, often compounded with historical trauma\, impacts survivor’s ability to fully participate in the criminal justice process. As a result\, a collaborative\, trauma-informed response that takes historical context into consideration is essential to ensuring survivor access to justice while improving community safety. \nThis presentation will describe various forms of trauma that victims may experience throughout their lives and as a result of an offender’s victimization. Presenters will define cultural humility as a key element of a successful trauma-informed response that improves our individual\, collective\, and systematic responses to survivors. Additionally\, the presenters will provide strategies to identify\, document\, and introduce evidence of trauma to improve case outcomes and community safety by holding offenders accountable. \n
