We welcomed WAIT House Executive Director Jason McLaughlin, and Echo Urbahn, Outreach Coordinator, to raise awareness about human trafficking happening in our community.We also recognized James Amell for reaching a new level in his donations to The Rotary Foundation as a Multiple Paul Harris Fellow.
Jason spoke about the exploitation of vulnerable youth in our area and what puts them at risk, how to spot signs of trafficking, and how to connect those in need with resources.
