Nola has been involved and working on public awareness of human trafficking for a number of years and the more she became immersed in this issue the more she recognized the need to create the Human Trafficking Awareness Partnerships, Inc. non-profit organization to prepare and provide information on this difficult topic on a state, national and international level.
Genelle currently teaches in the School of Education of Edison State College and directs the GRACE Project. Since 2006, she has worked in health, education, art and communications departments in universities and numerous schools in New Hampshire, Florida, Puerto Rico, Colombia, Mexico and Guatemala. Her GRACE Project is one of the best models for systemic change in stopping sex trafficking. To find out why and how listen to our archived program. Namaste!!! Ann
