American Association of University Women (AAUW) will present a program on the timely and very important issue of human trafficking. The speaker is Erika Gonzalez, Immigration Legal Services Program Manager, for Opening Doors in Sacramento. We may be accustomed to thinking of human trafficking as happening far away in a Third World area. This is not true; human trafficking is taking place in our country, in our state, in our region. Sacramento is the human trafficking activity hub for this region. Opening Doors has been a founding member of Sacramento’s Rescue and Restore coalition, and established its Survivors of Human Trafficking program. The program is FREE and open to the public. Refreshments will be served. Come and learn more about the horrific problem of human trafficking and the dire needs of those who have survived it.

Afghans
for Angels is an organization, headquartered in Sutter Creek, made up
of volunteers who make baby afghans that are then distributed to

Los Angeles, Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital in Ohio, White
Memorial in Los Angeles, Sonora Regional Medical Center, and Marshall
Hospital in Placerville. We also donate afghans to photographers who
generously give of their time and talent to the Now I Lay me Down To Sleep organization.
