Some\u00a0of the most vulnerable people we serve are survivors of human trafficking who face legal obstacles in recovering from the trauma of this crime. New Orleans and Baton Rouge are &#8220;hot spots&#8221; for human trafficking due to our close proximity to the I-10 and nexus to major transportation centers. This January, designated as National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month, we want to thank the Pennington Foundation and Empower 225 (formerly called HP Serve) for their partnership in funding civil legal aid for victims of human trafficking.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; margin: 0 0 10px 0;\"><span style=\"font-size: 13px;\"><a style=\"text-decoration: none; color: #f96e00; font-size: 12px; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.penningtonfamilyfoundation.org\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/bloomerang-public-cdn\/southeastlouisianalegalservices\/header_logo.png\" alt=\" \" width=\"119\" height=\"64\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 119px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 119\/64;\" \/><\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<a style=\"text-decoration: none; color: #f96e00; font-size: 12px; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;\" href=\"http:\/\/hpserve.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 64px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 64\/64;font-size: 13px; color: #ffffff;\" data-src=\"https:\/\/s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/bloomerang-public-cdn\/southeastlouisianalegalservices\/0.png\" alt=\" \" width=\"64\" height=\"64\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 13px; color: #ffffff;\">\u00a0<a style=\"text-decoration: none; color: #f96e00; font-size: 12px; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.edenhousenola.org\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/bloomerang-public-cdn\/southeastlouisianalegalservices\/10559806_733268296726350_8164308791933160013_n.jpg\" alt=\" \" width=\"64\" height=\"64\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 64px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 64\/64;\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; margin: 0 0 10px 0;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">We are also excited to announce a brand new collaboration with Eden House.
