Human Trafficking Forum
Location: Church of the Transfiguration, 320 Glenridge Avenue , St. Catharines, ON

Join us on October 18, from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm at Church of the Transfiguration in St. Catharines, as we learn the realities of human trafficking in our backyard, especially in Niagara, with the 401 corridor and the proximity of the American border. Joining us will be Jennifer Richardson, Canada’s chief advisor on human trafficking and a survivor. Also on the panel will be Detective Tara Ryan from the Niagara Regional Police Service and Jessica Wang from the Niagara Sexual Assault Centre.
Lunch will be provided; please register by Wednesday, October 15 and indicate any dietary requirements. While there is no fee to participate, free will donations to support the work of Human Trafficking Justice Niagara are deeply appreciated.
