WALDORF, Maryland – Bringing a halt to human trafficking needs help from the public, which must learn to “see the unseen,” an anti-trafficking advocate recently told church members here.
Civilian training is the first step, said Rebecca McDonald, founder and president of Women at Risk, International (WAR), a Michigan-based non-profit organization that works to provide protection to those at risk, for the event.
“Until you take this personally, nothing is going to change,” McDonald told members of the First Baptist Church in Waldorf.
The church partnered with WAR for a seven-hour Civilian First Responder program for 250 attending members, teaching them about what human trafficking is, the horrors of victims’ experience, how they can detect signs of the crime in their community and resources they can contact to get help.

It's a dirty filthy world out there. I'd you were to see just what goes on in Salisbury wicomico county you would be disgusted
Southern boarder is a good place to sit and watch.
It's the reason that at least one motel has been razed in Salisbury. You don't need to go to the border, unless it was the MD-DE line you meant.
Except the poleece is so much smarter than we is, the won't listen.
