Banker Lopez Gassler is proud to be a “Coach” sponsor of the Friends of Joshua House Foundation Child Abuse Awareness Luncheon. The luncheon speakers will focus on child sexual trafficking. Florida ranks third in the nation for sexually trafficking US children and teens. Our children are not for sale!
This year’s luncheon will have two keynote speakers – Detective James McBride, Director of the Clearwater/Tampa Bay Area Task Force on Human Trafficking, and Holly Austin Smith, a survivor of child trafficking and consultant for AMBER Alert.
The Joshua House Foundation is a safe haven for abused, abandoned and neglected children, offering a therapeutic residential group care program that provides a protected, nurturing, family-like environment for children six to seventeen.
