A local branch of Washington Engaged meets at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 30 at the Kent Senior Center, 600 E Smith St.
The public is invited to join others ready to form a valley CAT (Coalition Against Trafficking). Alignment director Ruth Hill will present the CAT vision and help direct the group with the necessary steps.
Washington Engaged, a statewide, nonprofit group, is organizing a grassroots CAT in the Kent, Renton, Auburn area. The goal is to bring schools, community leaders and concerned citizens together to combat the trafficking of girls and women in the sex slave trade.
Human trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery and is thriving throughout the country.
