Committee on Judiciary on Behalf of the Attorney GeneralPrefiled 20 Deccember 2012
A study in Minnesota found that for every $1 spent on prevention of minor sex trafficking, it is likely $34 were saved.
By spending $1 on prevention, $34 can be saved on law enforcement, health care costs, victim services, rehabilitation, welfare payments, and lost economic potential of the victims.
We are an interfaith group of citizens working together to improve people's lives in Las Vegas.
Our members are residents of Las Vegas, North Las Vegas, Henderson, and Boulder City.
We have members who are Christian, Jewish, and Muslim.
Issues that are important to us include but are not limited to education, the local economy, minor sex trafficking, the vulnerable elderly and immigration.
We look forward to working with our elected representatives to improve our neighborhoods, our cities, and our state as a whole.
