Thank you, chair Stevens.

Wanna go back a little bit.
1:27:25
How are you improving awareness about human trafficking among foster youth?

We have our ACS youth council.
1:27:42
We have them go talk to the young people.
1:27:44
We also have a lived experience staff that's hired that does engage with our young people in informing them about trafficking awareness.
1:27:52
We have posters that we bring.
1:27:54
We also have our flyers.
1:27:56
And again, we are running a contest now.

We're trying to get the young people to engage whether you're at risk or traffic or do not wanna disclose, but through your art form, you can share what's happening.
