DESCRIPTION:STOP the Traffick Within U.S Borders: Exploring Domestic Human Trafficking 
 Initiatives\n\nBERKELEY, CA--  On Thursday, March 6, 2008, STOP the 
 Traffick will host the discussion panel “Within U.S. Borders: Exploring 
 Domestic Human Trafficking Initiatives.” The crime of modern day slavery 
 still exists in the form of human trafficking and service agencies from all 
 over the Bay Area of California have come together to discuss the various 
 government policies and social services provided for human trafficking 
 survivors in California and the United States.  Doors open at 5:30p.m. to 
 meet participating organizations at 370 Dwinelle Hall Conference Room at UC 
 Berkeley. (Signs will be posted to Dwinelle Hall from the Corner of 
 Telegraph and Bancroft Ave.) Refreshments will be provided. Admission is

 keynote speaker. Panelists Jim Saleda, Officer for the Vice Crimes and 
 Child Exploitation Unit of the Oakland Police Department; Mary Wiberg 
 member of the California Alliance to Combat Trafficking and Slavery Task 
 Force; and Erin Gangitano, Staff Attorney for the Asian Pacific Islander 
 Legal Outreach will discuss the reasons why the invisibility of human 
 trafficking activities go undetected on a daily basis despite trafficking 
 victims performance of labor in, ironically, public spaces.\n  \nA sex 
 trafficking survivor will be present to share her story in honor of 
 International Women’s Day.  The launch of the second annual STOP the 
 Traffick Panel is part of the Gender Equity Resource Center’s Women’s 
 History Month Series, Celebrating Women Across the World.  \n\nThe event is 
 co-sponsored by the Associated Students of the University of California
