Advocates for Women of Edmonds UU Church will hold a dinner to benefit The Bridge Program, Washington’s residential treatment program for sexually exploited minors.
Approximately 500 minors per year are trafficked on an Everett-to-Tacoma circuit. The Bridge provides comprehensive help for up to 20 trafficking victims (14–17 years old) in a safe, welcoming six-bed facility.
Leslie Briner of The Bridge Program/YouthCare will speak on this alarming crime against children.
Dinner (pasta for meat-eaters, vegetarians, and gluten-freers) will be served following the program (5–7 pm). Free-will donations for The Bridge gratefully accepted. Email for more information.
