Because this is a topic that reaches far beyond the RCA\, all students\, faculty\, staff\, alumni\, and others are welcome and encouraged to take part. \nJennifer is the RCA representative to the Canadian Council of Churches’ Commission on Justice and Peace where she serves as the Vice Chair as well as the Chair for the Working Group on Sexual Exploitation in Canada. Over the coming year\, Jennifer will be transitioning from her role with the Regional Synod of Canada—raising awareness and mobilizing advocacy—into her new role as inaugural Executive Director of Restorations Second Stage Homes\, a charity working to open a long-term home in southern Ontario for survivors of commercial sexual exploitation\, working directly with women and girls affected by sexual exploitation and providing them with long term housing and programming to help them overcome trauma and flourish in their new lives apart from exploitation and abuse. \nPrior to her role with the Regional Synod of Canada\, Jennifer worked for Walk With Me Canada\, a victim services agency which provided support and services to victims and survivors of both labour and sex trafficking. There\, she responded to crisis calls from law enforcement\, victim services and other social agencies regarding victims of human trafficking\, and she coordinated first-response care\, support and services to accommodate immediate needs. \nDinner is free for all Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ students\, faculty\, and staff. For everyone else\, there is a suggested donation of $15.00\, but any donations are welcome. RSVP to jbrumm@nbts.edu by Thursday\, October 19. \n URL:/events/dinner-discussion-human-trafficking-sexual-exploitation/ LOCATION:35 SEMINARY PLACE\, NEW BRUNSWICK\, NJ\, 08901\, United States CATEGORIES:Reformed Church Center ORGANIZER;CN="James%20Hart%20Brumm%2C%20Director%2C%20The%20Reformed%20Church%20Center":MAILTO:jbrumm@nbts.edu END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
