In honor of Human Trafficking Awareness Month, join us for a powerful and educational community event dedicated to bringing awareness, education, and hope to Brown County.
Co-hosted by Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Green Bay, HER Alliance, and the UWGB Social Work Professional Programs, this special gathering offers two opportunities on the same day to hear from a keynote survivor speaker, connect with community support networks, and learn how to take action against sex trafficking in our region.
🗓 Date: Thursday, January 28, 2027
📍 Choose from Two Times & Locations:
1:00 PM – 2:30PM | UWGB – Christie Theatre (1st floor of University Union)

✨ Event Highlights:
➡️ Keynote Speaker Taylor Owens: Survivor advocate, educator, entrepreneur, and film producer.
