Human trafficking is not just a distant issue—it’s a reality in our own community. On Sept. 28, 2024, Not For Sale: One Step At A Time, in partnership with Walsh University, will host the 6th Annual Community Freedom Summit, urging everyone to confront this hidden crime and take meaningful action. This year’s summit, themed “Technology in Human Trafficking,” will explore how traffickers are exploiting technology to target vulnerable individuals, including children. Keynote speakers Michael Wheeler, President and Chief Legal Officer at Patriot Software, and David Frattare, Director of State Investigations for the Ohio Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force, will share their expertise on artificial intelligence, internet crimes, sextortion, and the dangers of modern apps.

In collaboration with the Ohio Attorney General’s office and the Red Sand Project, attendees will take part in a symbolic act of pouring red sand into the cracks of the sidewalks at Walsh University. This demonstration stands for those who fall through society’s cracks and into the hands of traffickers, reminding us that awareness and vigilance are crucial in the fight against human trafficking. Arrive early, between 9 – 10 a.m., to enjoy a light breakfast, explore the community marketplace, engage with freedom educators, and take part in the Red Sand Project. | Read More (PDF)

We’re excited to see more Electric Vehicles (EVs) on campus—it’s a great step toward a greener future! However, we need to pause on charging EVs here for now. Please avoid plugging into light poles, as this puts extra strain on our power grid. But don’t worry—we’re exploring options to install proper charging stations on campus. In the meantime, check out nearby charging stations using this link: Local Charging Locations. Thanks for your cooperation as we work towards a sustainable solution!
