Coordination of services for vulnerable migrants: Tfws, Human Trafficking, undocumented

Date and time

2014.03.14, 11:00 AM to 11:00 AM

Details

While populations of TFWs and undocumented migrants are growing in Canada and there is an increase
in identification of human trafficking cases, very few community or public services receive any funding to
serve them. In this workshop, representatives of different initiatives (Quebec, Ontario, Alberta) that aim to
overcome this hurdle to defend the rights of these migrants come together to discuss challenges and best
practices.

Organizer: Jill Hanley
