All women are invited to join Savvy Women Exchanging Relevant Views to hear recently retired University of Puget Sound sociology professor Elizabeth Petras discuss “The Global Trafficking Industry.”

This multi-billion dollar industry is second only to the illegal drug trade and tied with illegal arms trading in its profitability. Learn why such a large industry is seemingly invisible and why it is so difficult to intervene.

SWERV meets from 10:30 to noon Tuesday, Jan. 14 at Filipino American Hall, 7566 High School Road.
