5th Annual AIM Event! [Past Event]
Awaken, Even in Hawaii. This is happening right here in Hawai‘i, among our own kids! Come! We need to Awaken!
Presented by Aloha International Mission (AIM) and Alec & Belle Waterhouse Lecture Series (ABWLS)
All parents need to be educated to protect their own children!
We must not think, “This doesn’t apply or matter to me in my work,’ when it absolutely does! Nearly everyone is impacted by this growing epidemic, and we in the medical field are at the front lines and can make a huge difference! To address this crisis well, we need to be more aware and better equipped.
Healthcare Professionals are especially urged to attend our Anti-Trafficking Conference, Awaken, as 88% of those trafficked may have contact with a medical professional while in captivity, but are missed and not identified! Please join us, and help us spread the word!
