WHAT – In observance of January as National Human Trafficking Prevention Month, Nassau County Legislator Seth I. Koslow (D – Merrick) is partnering with Dr. Pepper Martin of Freeport-based Destiny House Christian Center and Women Intended for Excellence to host a Human Trafficking Symposium on Thursday, Jan. 9, 2025 at the Theodore Roosevelt Executive & Legislative Building in Mineola.
“Human trafficking inflicts unimaginable violence upon its victims, robs them of their dignity, and relies upon silence to enable such heinous crimes to slip through the cracks of our society,” Legislator Koslow said. “Working with Dr. Pepper Martin and our community partners, it is our hope that this symposium during National Human Trafficking Prevention Month will raise awareness and spark critical conversations about combating this ongoing humanitarian crisis.”
