Please submit your suggestions here.

She is very active in training the trainer on cultural issues latinas face in dealing with sexual assault, may prove to be a great session at the conference.

Please submit your suggestions here. (Use carriage returns.) : I\'ve heard Vincent Webb report on their findings, and it could be interesting. Others from that same study are also reporting findings, one is Amy Farrell, who was one of the principal investigators on the study out of Northeastern University (although Dr. Webb is closer). An executive summary of this DOJ report is at: http://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/nij/grants/225202.pdf. Michael Shively is also doing work on demand reduction around the sex trade, and is a very interesting speaker. His findings are from a national study reviewing what cities/counties are doing to reduce demand for paid sex.

Please submit your suggestions here. (Use carriage returns.) : . I would recommend inviting Dr. Vincent Webb to present the study by Sam Houston University, Huntsville, Tx, regarding Understanding and Improving State and Local Law Enforcement Responses to Human Trafficking. . Their primary research questions in the study were: 1. What are the perceptions of trafficking held by local law enforcement and the what steps have agencies taken to prepare to identify and investigate trafficking cases? 2. How often does law enforcement identify and investigate cases of human trafficking? 3. Are there community or organizational factors that predict police identification of human trafficking cases? 4. What are the characteristics of those cases investigated by law enforcement? 5. What are the lessons learned and challenges of identifying, investigating and prosecuting cases of human trafficking cases?
