Advocacy Workshop, Tyson's Corner, VA

International Justice Mission (IJM) is holding an advocacy workshop on April 15 in Tyson's Corner, Virginia. The purpose of the event is to "to connect with other activists from your home state, and learn how to turn your elected Members of Congress into anti-trafficking champions".  The cost is only $10, so if you're anywhere nearby or feel like taking a trip to the beautiful State of Virginia, then this would be an awesome opportunity.  In my opinion IJM is one of the best anti-trafficking organizations worldwide, and any chance to learn from them is a chance well taken.
