Projects
Our Rotary Club seeks out ongoing and one-time service projects to directly benefit survivors of sex trafficking or to address systemic problems such as homelessness and poverty which intersect with sex trafficking. Our current main service project for the year 2022-2023 is to identify and support programs providing trafficking prevention education to youth in Washington state.
