Congratulations to the Topeka Rotary Clubs and members who have given generously to our fight to end human trafficking! I received the attached notification of our recognition by the Office of the Attorney General of Kansas for the work done on our Global Grant Day Center and related anti-human trafficking projects! Please share this with your clubs. Unfortunately, the Conference where this recognition would have been given was cancelled due to Conoravirus concerns.
 
This is the email I also received from the Kansas AG office:
Good afternoon Patti!  And congratulations to you and the Rotary Clubs achievements in the anti-trafficking movement.  Attached you will find a copy of the letter being mailed to you from Attorney General Derek Schmidt, formally recognizing the work of the Topeka Rotary clubs along with the Topeka and Shawnee County Anti-trafficking Coalition, as this year’s Outstanding Victim Service Response.  I am sorry that we were unable to present in person this year at the Crime Victim’s Rights Conference, but we celebrate the work of this group none the less!  A press release will be going out to your local media soon.  Thanks again for your work on behalf of crime victims.  Take care!  Michelle
