Will you be up in the Seattle area sometime soon? We've got SAS, and I'm a part of Students Against Slavery at UW, but one voice has always had a special place in my heart. I'd love to come support you sometime if possible, maybe hang out for a bit.

My name is David Keaton and I am located in parsons Kansas. I am a youth pastor and friends with Andy Houltberg. We are about 2 1/2 hours from Kansas city and working with him on bringing awareness to human trafficking. I am also encouraging our youth to join in this movement. I just wanted to ask if it was okay to refer those I'm in contact with to this site and Just One? Primarily through facebook and events we have in our community. Thanks for all you do.
