💙 Human trafficking doesn't just happen somewhere else.

It happens in cities, suburbs, and communities across the country—including right here in Western Pennsylvania.

The good news? Awareness matters.

The more people understand the signs, the myths, and how trafficking actually happens, the better equipped our communities are to recognize concerns and help protect those who may be vulnerable.

That's why we're encouraging everyone to take a few minutes to learn more through the free OnWatch™ training.

🔹 Learn
🔹 Stay informed
🔹 Help protect your community

Knowledge is one of the most powerful tools we have in the fight against human trafficking.

OnWatch Learn to recognize the signs of s*x trafficking.

💚 PTSD doesn't always look the way people think it does.

Sometimes it looks like a veteran.
Sometimes it looks like a first responder.
Sometimes it looks like a neighbor, coworker, friend, or family member.

Here in the Pittsburgh area, thousands of individuals live with the effects of trauma every day. Many are working, raising families, volunteering in their communities, and doing their best while carrying burdens that others may never see.

This PTSD Awareness Month, let's remember that compassion matters.

A little patience.
A little understanding.
A simple "How are you doing?" can go a long way.

💚 See the person.
💚 Hear the story.
💚 Lead with compassion.

Together, we can help create a community where no one feels they have to face their struggles alone.

🧺 We have had so much fun putting together this year's raffle baskets!

From pet lovers to coffee lovers and everything in between, there's a little something for everyone.

The best part? Every basket helps support the programs and services that WPSARDC provides throughout our community.

Take a look at the baskets and let us know...

👇 Which one would you be excited to win?
