Human trafficking bill signed into law



Sister Donna Butler was one of many Sisters of Providence who were involved in offering teachable moments on the issue of human trafficking prior to the recent Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis, Ind. She organized an online petition to help bring attention to Indiana Senate Bill 4, which enhances penalties for persons involved in promoting human trafficking.

The bill was signed into law prior to the heaviest crowds arriving for traditional Super Bowl parties and activities.

Now, Sister Donna has provided an update on the implementation of the new law and she also offers continuing educational information about actions available to individuals or groups. You can find her blog post and the dozens and dozens of comments posted on it here.
