It will take place virtually on both Tuesday Jan. 10 and Wednesday Jan. 11 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. The goal is for people understand how to identify trafficking victims and how to report it.

Task force president Stephanie Graef said the training is $75 and open to the public.

“It’s open to anybody that is interested or curious as to what human trafficking is about how they can become involved, how they can protect their family, their young boys and girls, grandchildren, event students,” Graef said.
