The Mob Museum, the National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement, announces its March program titled The Battle to End Human Trafficking. Additionally, The Underground speakeasy and distillery invites guests to enjoy cocktail specials, weekly live music and its March Whiskey Club event.
THE MUSEUM’S MARCH PROGRAM FOLLOWS:
The Battle to End Human Trafficking
Date: Thursday, March 16
Time: 6 to 8 p.m.
Location: Inside the historic courtroom. A livestream of the presentation will be available on the Museum’s website. To RSVP to attend in-person or for the livestream link, click here.
Cost: Free for Museum Members or with Museum admission.
Description: Every year, millions of people are coerced, exploited and trafficked worldwide – the U.S. State Department estimates that 27.6 million people (about the population of Texas) are victims of human trafficking at any given time. The Mob Museum and Signs of Hope, a nonprofit offering services to those affected by sexual violence and exploitation, will host a panel discussion featuring women who have made a difference in the fight against human trafficking in Las Vegas. Hear from Jessica Kay as she shares her inspiring story of resilience and hope. Kay was forced to meet a quota of $2,500 a night as a sex trafficking victim. In 2007, she was arrested for solicitation of prostitution as part of a sting operation on the Las Vegas Strip. Her story of survival has championed change in the state Legislature and provided a path forward for other survivors. Several local organizations will provide free community resources in The Mob Museum’s historic courtroom before the program. This program is sponsored by the NV Energy Foundation.
