This one-day workshop, facilitated by Joy M. Zarembka, MA and Tanya M. Odom, Ed.M, will explore the complex cultural, social and economic context that prevents victims from seeking help. The goal is to increase participants’ effectiveness in identifying, interviewing, and assisting survivors of human trafficking by providing:

• Increased knowledge and skills for overcoming those barriers and working effectively across barriers
• Building skills and practical strategies to work effectively across cultures

Thanks to special funding, NMCI is able to offer this workshop at the discounted rate of $50.00 per person
