Program: This week's program was presented by Lyna Debner with North Central Iowa Coalition Against Human Trafficking. Lyna shared the definition of human trafficking and some of the misconceptions people have. She reminded the group that human trafficking is prevalent in Iowa and uses force, fraud and/or coercion for labor and sex trafficking. She shared several area examples she has encountered, and encouraged members to take the opportunity to see the documentary, “Grid Shock,” that also features information about human trafficking in Iowa.
