"Thank you very much for your presentation today. It was right on target with what I had envisioned. It causes me to think deeper professionally and personally about human trafficking that is all around us. You  gave me some hope in that A Safe Place is dealing with many more victims than they dealt with only two years ago. Again thank you." - HL
