RIVERSIDE, CA- The Mt. Rubidoux SDA Church presents, “STOP Trafficking, START Acting,” a place to learn more about the devastating issue of human trafficking and how you can help to stop it. This event is set to take place on Thursday, January 18 from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m., at the Mt. Rubidoux SDA Church located at 5320 Victoria Avenue in Riverside.
Every day, in small towns and big cities, and in countries around the world, women and girls (especially) are being trafficked into a horrible life of sexual slavery. It is also happening in our backyard, right here in the county of Riverside. Come and join us to learn more about the heartbreaking horror of human trafficking, and what you can do to assist in stopping it. For this event, the following organizations have partnered: Soroptimist International of Corona, Riverside, and San Bernardino, Operation SafeHouse, The Grove Community Church and Mt. Rubidoux SDA Church. In addition, several anti-human trafficking organizations will be represented.
The event is FREE and open to the public for individuals 12 years old and over. Adults must accompany children. Donations of $10 will be accepted and greatly appreciated. Light refreshments will be served.
