Mocktails & Meaning™: Behind the Scenes of Human Trafficking

May 21 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Free

Join us for our May 21, 2026 Mocktails & Meaning™ gathering for a powerful and eye-opening conversation led by Brad Ortenzi, Eastern USA Regional Director of ZOE International and Coordinator of the Berks and Lancaster County Human Trafficking Task Forces. Drawing on his experience as a former Ephrata Police Detective, his work with federal and county child exploitation task forces, and his international work combating trafficking in Thailand, Brad will take us behind the scenes of human trafficking in Lancaster County. This session will explore how traffickers recruit and control victims, the psychological realities of trauma bonding, and how local task forces respond through both enforcement and prevention. Time will be set aside for questions and dialogue. We’ll be serving a Mai Tai Mocktail as we engage this important and impactful conversation.
