World Day Against Trafficking in Persons

Did you know July 30th is World Day Against Trafficking in Persons?

Since 2013, the United Nations has designated July 30th as “World Day Against Trafficking in Persons” to raise awareness about this serious crime and grave violation of human rights, which is present globally, nationally, throughout California, and in particular in our San Francisco Bay Area communities.

In observance of World Day Against Trafficking in Person, we will be hosting a Hybrid Screening And Panel Discussion of the documentary film "This Adventure Called California."

We are delighted to be partnering with Tree Climber Media and award winning Producer and Director Jennifer Huang and show this film that addresses the vulnerabilities of being trafficked and re-exploited and the the determination and incredible resilience of the protagonist, Arnoldo Lopez Contreras to move forward and overcome constant obstacles.

The screening will be followed by an expert panel discussion on the impact and challenges of trafficking in our communities. Panelists include:

Rafael Bautista, Chair of the US Advisory Council on Human Trafficking

Genesis Duong, Justice At Last Client Advocate Program Manager

Ruth Silver Taube, Law Office of Silver & Taube; Adjunct Professor, SCU School of Law; Special Counsel, Legal Aid at Work
Ben Sinoff, Deputy District Attorney of the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office

This is an opportunity to better understand what happens when persons in our community are trafficked and what you can do to help stop trafficking.
