Grad Night provides safe, sober activities

High school graduation day is full of excitement. It is a day to celebrate a big accomplishment with friends and family.

Unfortunately, big days like prom or graduation increase the chances of teens drinking or doing drugs. Finding an event or celebration where parents can be assured it will be safe and drug and alcohol free, is not an easy task. This is where Grad Night comes in.

Grad Night is an event started

by Kevin St. John about 40 years ago when his friend died in an alcohol-related accident after graduation.

The purpose of Grad Night is to provide a safe, fun, drug and alcohol free event for graduating seniors. Instead of going off to a party where graduated students partake in drinking and doing [ more GRAD page 2 ]

Growth of South King County human trafficking Student athletes sign letters of intent on National Signing brings agencies together to discuss solutions

BY MARK KLAAS Editor

Human trafficking is alive and growing all too well in South King County.

Let Kent Police Chief Ken Thomas explain.

An undercover sting operation made 31 arrests during a 10-hour shift last year. Authorities netted 27 arrests for solicitation on another night.

Among the buyers? A 17-year-old boy who attends a Kent high school.

So many buyers were booked and victims rescued that it tapped out police resources, ultimately resulting in a wave of cases that swamped the court system.

A market-driven criminal enterprise, the human sex and slavery industry remains a growing problem, a local crisis that has spread beyond Pacific Highway and side streets to the deep and wide abyss of the Internet.

“The demand is off the hook. There is a ton of (buyers) out there,” Thomas told a group of leaders and representatives from agencies committed to stopping the problem at a

community forum at Kent City Hall on Feb. 4. “This is such a big problem, and it (attracts) people from all facets of life. … This problem sees no borders, no barriers. It’s a huge problem, and the only way we can work toward changing it is by changing the attitude, changing the culture.

“We need to say it’s not right,” Thomas said. “We need to bring awareness to the problem, awareness to the issues and deal with it appropriately.”

Kent Police hosted and the South East King Coalition Against Trafficking (SEKCAT) sponsored the forum – “Beneath the Surface”, an update on human trafficking in the area. The meeting brought together law enforcement, education, social service and other agencies that are trying to better coordinate efforts to fight human trafficking.

All sides agree that the prevailing approach is to bring and improve awareness, education and training to those willing to stem the tide.

“We want to be multi-faceted in our area,” said Lorna Rufener, a retired Kent Police officer who helped form [ more SOLUTIONS page 11 ]

[ GRAD from page 1] drugs, they will have a place they can celebrate safely. It is an over-night event where only Grad Night organizing members know where it is being held. Most of the time, they take the students to more than one location.

Students are not allowed to bring anything with them and are patted down before they get on the bus. No cell phones, backpacks or other personal items are allowed.

There is a nurse with them at all times, all of the students’ emergency information is kept in a folder and there are cell phones available in case of an emergency.

The no cell phone rule is mainly to prevent students from calling anyone and letting them know where the location is, and having an outsider potentially bring drugs or alcohol.

Tracy Kudrna is the Grad Night chair for Tahoma High School and sees the importance in providing the students with a safe place they can be with their friends.

“We want to provide an opportunity for students to celebrate without drugs and alcohol and just enjoy each other,” Kudrna said. “It’s an easy sell when they know everything is provided and they get to be with their friends.”

As part of safety precautions Grad Night takes, they either provide security or the schools can provide their own. The security team all have to be in the law enforcement field.

The main concern about Grad Night and keeping students away from drugs and alcohol is the downtime between graduation and Grad Night. Some graduating classes have a few hours between, where they can drink or do drugs before the event. In those instances, if a Grad Night event member sees a student under the influence, they will see how severe it is. If it is too severe, they hand them off to their parents. If it’s not too bad, they will still allow the student to come but they will be segregated from everyone else, Kudrna said.

Covington Police Chief Andrew McCurdy is just as worried as any other parent about students during big events, like graduation. Parents, teachers and volunteers

need to give kids an attractive alternative to using drugs and alcohol. Events and parties need to be safe and well supervised but they also need to be fun for the kids who are most likely to use drugs and alcohol, which is the whole goal of Grad Night. Whether students have safe places to celebrate or not, parents need to speak openly to their student about the inherent dangers of drugs and alcohol. This way, kids feel safe sharing their concerns and feelings and they feel comfortable calling for help if they are in dangerous situations, McCurdy said.

“The safety of students is the responsibility of the entire community,” McCurdy said. “We all need to find opportunities to work together to support kids and give them the confidence to make good decisions.”

Some of the things the police specifically do to keep students safe is having the school’s resource officer provide students with information on drug and alcohol prevention. They use some grants from Washington Traffic Safety Commission’s Target Zero to increase patrols during graduation and other times of the year that impaired driving is likely to increase, McCurdy said.

While Grad Night provides everything for the schools, it is up to the schools to pick specifics. Kentlake Grad Night committee chairs Michelle Zielinski and Sherri Rosling feel the pressure of picking the right venues and activities.

“We want to pick events that will keep students entertained,” Rosling said.

Grad Night provides dozens of venue, food and entertainment options and the committees have to pick the best fit for their schools. Zielinski and Rosling are going off of previous years’ options and how the students reacted to them. A hypnotist, Fear Factor and go cart racing have all been popular in the past.

Rosling and Zielinski have helped with Grad Night the past few years and so far have not had any issues with students showing up under the influence or with drugs or alcohol on them.

“They realize it’s not worth it,” Zielinski said. “It’s one last celebration with each other and they want to enjoy it.”

As parents, Rosling and Zielinski really appreciate the thought behind Grad Night. They like knowing that parents can rest easy knowing their child is in safe environment.

To participate in Grad Night, students can sign up through their school’s PTA page. There is a fee per student to help cover the costs of the events, food, entertainment and transportation. Fund raisers are also happening throughout the year to help cover the costs as well.

Underage Drinking Statistics • The Center for Disease Control & Prevention estimates more than 4,000 kids under 21 die annually in alcohol-related deaths, 25 percent of those being car crashes with an underage, drinking driver.

• First offense, with a blood alcohol concentration of .02-.07, results in a 90 day license suspension. Any additional offenses could mean loss of license until 21.

• If the BAC is .08 or higher, minors will be charged with an adult crime of driving under the influence, a gross misdemeanor.

• Teens may be charged with minor in possession, a misdemeanor offense, for exhibiting the signs of having consumed alcohol. Minors can lose their license for up to a year, or until age 17, whichever is longer.

• State Healthy Use Survey results in 2014 showed about 35 percent of high-school seniors reported having a drink in the prior 30 days.

• In 2010, there were approximately 189,000 emergency rooms visits across the nation by persons under age 21 for injuries and other conditions linked to alcohol.

I mean, he doesn’t take the garbage out or do the dishes just because I wish he would. Or maybe he got moving because I wouldn’t watch movies with him Sunday morning, preferring instead to get back to the scrapbooking project I was on the verge of finishing..

We still have a white trash aura that wouldn’t cut it in a fancier neighborhood. The back patio is still a mess, old roofing is spread in the far corner of the yard in another attempt to kill the Japanese knotwood, and I’m sure the space behind his shop looks like a hoarder situation, but the yard certainly looks much better than it did last week.

The important thing is stuff got done. When a weekend is like that, I come out of it feeling really confident, productive and especially worthy.

One of my biggest annoyances in life is that I am not only the chief cook and bottle washer, I’m apparently the Master of Motivation (MOM – see what I did there?).

I hate being depended to motivate my family; it’s too much pressure.

Whipping people into action is not one of my strengths. I’m no cheerleader. When I try and get my kids to be more active on the weekend, they tell me they have homework; as they stare at their computer games or catch up on episodes of some creepy crime drama. I don’t always have the energy to nag them.

I guess MOMs are born into their role. Or rather our husbands married us and our children were born and we just naturally stepped up to the position. But why does everyone have to be dependent on my level of productivity? Why can’t they wake up in the morning and want to accomplish something? Why do MOMs want more for their husbands and children than they want for themselves?

For instance, I have to be busy with a project on the weekend in order for my husband to get anything done. We don’t always even work

on the same tasks. And if I have a particularly lethargic weekend, so does he; again, we’re not necessarily being lazy at the same thing.

I get that he works all week and likes to relax on the weekend. But I’m at home all week working and tending the house and would like to use the weekends to get the things done that I can’t take the time for during the week or tasks that I need

help with.

It took until Sunday this last weekend for my husband to get motivated. Actually, he did work in his shop on Saturday, but that’s nothing that affected me. I feel the people I live with are only productive when they are doing something for the good of the family. Because I’m MOM, the good of the family is my whole being.

However, my husband must’ve read my mind Sunday morning (that’s a first), because I had just noticed there was still debris scattered across the backyard from rebuilding his shed. I thought, “Our yard always looks like we’re on the edge of being white trash. We don’t have to live like this. Time to pull out my best MOM skills.”

An extensive boundary review process is underway to determine which of the six elementary schools students will attend in the fall of 2017. After the committee determines elementary attendance boundaries, it will address middle school boundaries. The outer boundaries of the district are not changing.

More information about the process is available at http://goo.gl/3MzKE3 and the committee meetings are open to the public, although parents and community members are asked to observe and not participate at this point. The parents on the committee will host two public comment meetings on dates yet to be determined.

The location of the upcoming meeting was changed due to an anticipated increase in attendance; it will be at 6 p.m. Feb. 24 in the THS library.

While there are some heart attack risk factors that no amount of healthy living can change, such as genetics, gender, and age, there are a number of healthy lifestyle changes that everyone can, and should, make in order to keep their heart in tip top shape. First of all, quit smoking. In fact, quit all tobacco products. There is no healthy cigarette, cigar, or chewing tobacco, no matter what claims the label makes. Take in 30 minutes of exercise at least three times a week, but aim for most days. Talk to your healthcare provider about incorporating a heart-healthy diet full of whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. Maintain a healthy weight, and get enough good quality sleep.

Be sure to make and keep regular preventative appointments with your provider to keep a healthy heart.

Some heart attacks strike suddenly, but many people have warning signs and symptoms hours, days, or weeks in advance. It’s never too early or too later to learn the warning signs of a heart attack. Not everyone experiences severe chest pain with a heart attack, and symptoms in women can be different from symptoms in men.

Speeding: The math just doesn’t add up Ana Karen Perez Guzman

Since I started working for The Reporter I have had to make the trek from Kent to Covington each morning, I have seen at least one reckless driver every single day. I am a little nervous driving to work. The main reasons I have noticed why drivers are being so reckless is because they are in a hurry (speeding and weaving in and out of traffic) or distracted (texting, talking, fidgeting with their radios).

I understand how stressful it can be when you’re running late for something, but here is my advice. It’s not worth it to speed or weave in and out of traffic. You could get a ticket in either of those situations which: 1) would make you even more late; 2) you will have to pay for the said ticket with money you weren’t expecting to spend and 3) you could honestly injure or kill someone.

My coworker Ray Still decided to do a little math on how much time he would save if he sped. He came to the conclusion it is not worth it. Ray drives from the Enumclaw office to the Bonney Lake Justice and Municipal building often. It is approximately 11 miles. He goes through a 35 mph zone, 55 mph zone, 45 mph zone and 40 mph zone, in that order.

On average, he is going 44 mph for those 11 miles (35 + 55 + 45 + 40 = 175 / 4 = 44), which means it should take about 25 minutes to get there if he doesn’t slow down or stop for any reason. If he increases his average speed to 50 mph, it will take him about 22 minutes instead of 25.

And that’s only if he is not stopped or slowed.

To shave those three minutes off his drive, he somehow has to get his average speed up to 50 mph, so he needs to speed somewhere. He could travel 80 in the 55 mph zone, but that’s pretty unlikely with law-abiding drivers in front of him on highway. Chances are, he wouldn’t be able to go through the entire 55 mph zone doing 80.

But if he sped 6 miles over the speed limit in each area (41 + 61 + 51 + 46 = 199 / 4 = 49.75), he could bump up his average to 50 mph. But that would mean he would have to be speeding the entire way without anyone slowing him down, which again, would be difficult.

If Ray managed to somehow go 6 mph over the whole way, he would only be saving three minutes. His advice: You’re better off being late, picking up a dozen donuts and arriving at the office with a treat instead of a speeding ticket.

ers is seeing someone on their cell phone. It is infuriating. Anytime someone tells me they are good at texting or talking and driving, it drives me bananas. Nobody, and I mean nobody, is good at that.

Did you know that if you take your eyes off the road for about 4.6 seconds (the average time it takes to send that “quick” text) while driving at 55 mph, that’s like driving the length of an entire football field blindfolded. So many things can happen in those 4.6 seconds. A car could cut you off or suddenly brake, something could jump out in front of you or a person could be crossing the street. It’s just not worth it to send that quick text. It’s not worth it to answer a phone call.

Those things can wait a few minutes before you get to your destination, or pull over.

“The European Disunion: How the Continent Lost Its Way.” Of Germany’s 81 million population, 16 million are made up of people of foreign or immigrant descent. The same is true of the United Kingdom, with the secondhighest number of immigrants in its population. According to Woods, “Europe will become more like the United States, since immigration will become unstoppable.”

We need only examine the demographic changes to the United States brought about by increased immigration from Latin America and Asia with the change in immigration laws in 1965 to see this trend being born out. Much of the political tension and anger we currently see in our country is due to changing demographics.

Much of our anti-immigrant, anti-Muslim sentiment has its roots in the same concern found in Europe from the massive waves of immigrants fleeing the Middle East and North Africa.

The Republican Party in America, dominated by aging white males, is seeing its power base threatened by growing numbers of African-Americans, Asians and Latin Americans. The reason for the fracturing of Republicans is anger about this demographic reality. Americans of caucasian European descent will be a minority within a generation.

In Focus

dbox@soundpublishing.com 360-802-8205

The European Union has been shaken to its very foundation. The euro is straining relationships between the wealthy northern nations, especially Germany, and the southern nations, Greece in particular. Syrian, Iraqi, Libyan and Afghani refugees are fleeing the civil wars that plague their nations for a better life in Europe.

Britain is threatening to pull out of the EU and right-wing nationalism is seeing a resurgence in Germany, France and the Netherlands. Scottish secession from the United Kingdom, and Catalonia from Spain, are real possibilities. Small nations fear domination by Germany. Memories of the German boot from two world wars still linger in the continental consciousness.

Several nations’ low birth rates and aging populations will mean fewer younger workers to fill needed positions in the future. Immigrants are needed to bridge the gap, but their religious and ethnic differences are fueling strong nationalistic feelings tearing at the very structure of a united Europe.

As time goes on, “Europe is quickly becoming one of the most diverse regions of the world,” according to Ngaire Woods, in an article from the January/February 2016 “Foreign Affairs” called,

RICH ELFERS

425-306-5080 Dennis Box editor:

Paradoxically, the wave of immigration to Europe may actually make it easier for the EU to overcome its violent historical past and nationalistic divisions, according to Woods. It will make it easier for Europe to integrate into the United States of Europe, dreamed of at the end of World War II. So while the immigration crisis is tearing at the unity of Europe, in the long run, it may actually spur European unification. And as populations change, so do their politics.

For Europe, it is Germany’s dominance that both drives integration and, at the same time, keeps Europe from deeper cohesion. That is the irony of the European Union today. Germany, which tried to unsuccessfully control Europe through two world wars, may actually find itself attaining its 20th century goals through peaceful means.

Continued German dominance of Europe is a political and economic fact, which will not disappear in the future. If Europe continues to “muddle through” these current crises as it did with the financial crisis with Greece, we may see the rise of a more unified though culturally and religiously diverse Europe, capable of exerting tremendous economic, military and political influence in the world. Time will tell whether a truly unified Europe emerges from its current turmoil.

Letters to the Editor

Some points from the last Feb. 4 Black Diamond Council meeting.

While having a quorum on a council committee may not be illegal if properly noticed per RCW 42.30, there are still serious conflicts of interest if this were to actually occur in the small town of Black Diamond. Having three members of a five member board on a standing committee makes no sense. If the legislation were to be approved by the standing committee it would be an empty gesture to request approval from the other two members of council (because you already have the three votes required to pass it). This is just a blatant attempt to pass a specific agenda and keep two members of council from having any say in city matters.

There are people behind the scenes pulling the strings of certain council members. I urge those council members to dig deep and re-establish their dignity and integrity

Protecting yourself from phone Scams Phone security company Pindrop Security’s annual “State of Phone Fraud” report found there are more than 86 million scam calls every month, and that’s just in the U.S. To put it another way, one in every 2,200 phone calls is a scam call. That’s up 30 percent from 2013.

Fortunately, there are some rules you can follow to avoid being tricked in a phone scam. If you have

and start listening to the residents of Black Diamond and stop letting the opinions of others spill forth when they open their mouths. People of Bellevue, Issaquah or unincorporated King County did not vote you into office. The residents of Black Diamond did. It is time for you to cut your puppet masters’ strings and think for yourself. It is time to begin to acknowledge who you serve while sitting on that dais.

I witnessed a member of the audience coaching a council member on what to say during the meeting.

This is absolutely damaging to that council member’s integrity and honor. I find it disturbing and simply unprofessional. I do not think that particular council member formulated and expressed a single idea that had not previously been provided by an outside party. I find that action shameful and not in the best interest of the residents of Black Diamond.

Also, the idea of “do pass” or “no pass” for legislation or any other item of city business is an unnecessary extra step in the process of streamlined government.

Yes, citizens want and are

entitled to open and accessible government, but not to the degree it inhibits the city’s ability to perform its duties in a timely manner.

This means that council members need to be prepared for council meetings (something I observed to be severely lacking in some council members).

Do your homework! The agenda is prepared and published nearly a week ahead of time. And doing your homework is not that hard. It is accomplished by meeting with city staff to receive recommendations on projects and fiduciary responsibilities prior to the council meetings. Staff are your subject matter experts.

First term council members do not have the expertise or institutional knowledge required to make decisions without their assistance. Let staff do what they get paid to do.

Additionally, it is a fundamentally bad idea to start deliberating on whether or not the city should accept non-matching grant funds.

Discussion about the funds can be conducted after the funds are received. And to question why some of the money is set aside for administrative purposes

Jason Seth Black Diamond

I have had an email conversation with a person regarding my expressed anger during two separate comment periods before the Black Diamond City Council. Anger has become the unpardonable sin in America. If one speaks with passion and anger they are a bad person. Calling someone “angry” or a “bully” has become a tool to hush

dissenting voices. I state here and now that I have a right to voice opposition and I will not be shamed into silence.

In the email conversation this person expressed they had issues with the former City Council’s diplomacy, not their actions. OK, so now I get it. This is why it doesn’t matter if Council actions follow the Law, or completely abolish the Law. This is why “anger” is far worse than governing outside the Law. What matters is how it “feels” or how it “looks”.

Every country on earth has laws. Yet many of these countries are ruled by dictators, and dictators are capricious leaders. Laws mean nothing to them. They decide which laws to enforce or follow, and which laws they could care less about.

This can change depending upon the circumstance or person involved. When laws are so easily cast aside, the ever-shifting whims of those in power create instability and fear within the populace.

I spoke before the Black Diamond City Council at that Jan. 7 meeting and referenced RCW 35A.11.020 which limits the powers

4. Don’t pay There is no situation where you should give your payment information or Social Security number to an unsolicited caller. Some companies will take payment information over the

phone, but you’re usually calling them. Similarly, most companies that deal with a Social Security number will already have it and ask you only for the last four digits.

Another red flag is the caller asking for a wire

money transfer. Wire transfers are a favorite tool of scammers because once you send the money it’s gone forever. If you hear the words “wire transfer,” “Western Union,” “Moneygram” or the name of another wire transfer service,

If those three Black Diamond City Council members choose to ignore laws which clearly place restrictions and limits upon the way they govern, then they have in essence become the capricious dictators of Black Diamond. How do the citizens know which laws the council WILL abide by?

Which limitations to their power will they accept, if any? And how are we to know what they will decide to do, or change tomorrow?

The laws are there to hold our governing bodies to a solid, unmovable point. By skirting the laws of their choosing, their governance will be as solid as the wayward wind.

Weeds sprouting, trying to take over the garden three ways: from gardenshow.com, by calling 800 343 6973 or from one of 75 retail outlets – just check at your local nursery. Aside from all the gardens and gifts galore the show offers more than 100 seminars for beginners and advanced gardeners - and this year I’ll be speaking about weeds.

If weeds are the biggest worry in your garden, then relax and remember that weeds are Mother Nature’s way of getting you outdoors and exercising. Here are a few weeding tips for those of you that can’t make it to the garden show this spring.

Five Ways to Win the War on Weeds – without Upsetting Mother Nature 1. Pull weeds in early spring when the ground is moist – they will uproot Marianne Binetti

The Compleat Home Gardener

The second week of February is the start of spring with good news and bad news. The good news is that the Northwest Flower and Garden Show kicks off the growing season February 17 – 21. This means gardeners and anyone weary of winter can enjoy an early spring with the sights and scents of forced blooms, designer display gardens and garden and gift vendors filling several floors of the Washington State Convention Center in downtown Seattle. The bad news is that your weeds are now sprouting, blooming and trying to take over your garden.

The NWFG show offers early bird discounts of $5 when you purchase tickets before February 17 and you can buy tickets before the looming deadline

easier and you’ll get them before they go to seed and spread their evil spawn all over your garden.

2. Shot weed is blooming now – smother these short, white flowering weeds with a two inch layer of mulch this month and you’ll win the battle before a single shot is fire.

3. Some weeds are good to eat – dandelions and purslane are full of nutrition and taste the most tender when collected in early spring. Pull these up by the roots to keep them from coming back.

4. Most weeds can go into your compost pile – or dig a shallow hole and rake the weeds you remove into this new grave site. Cover your collection of pulled or raked weeds with a layer of soil, leaves and mulch and they will rot to return nutrients to the soil.( Do not bury or compost noxious, nasty weeds such as horsetail or morning glory.)

5. Every weed can be eliminated by constant cutting. You just need to starve the roots by removing the top growth. This even works with horsetail, morning glory and blackberries. Start now by cutting the weeds to ground level. Cut again when new growth appears in a few weeks, then again and perhaps even a fourth time. A string trimmer or mowing machine is the

most practical way to deal with large patches of weeds but hand cutting at ground level with a pruner is the best way to tackle persistent weeds that lurk among your plants. It takes one season of constant cutting to weaken the root system of powerful weeds. Laying down a mulch will help smother the new growth. Sounds like too much work?

Try putting down cardboard or a thick layer of damp newspaper and pile wood chips or bark mulch on top. No plants can survive without sunlight.

Sometimes the best way to win the war on weeds is to learn more about the enemy. Weeds outgrow your other plants when soil, light or water conditions create a space where only the very adaptable and hardy weeds will grow.

Clover in the lawn tells you the soil may be compacted; buttercups mean soggy soil and a once loved groundcover growing out of control can become a back breaking weed to remove. One person’s weed may be another gardener’s wild flower –or food source. We also need to allow some native weeds to provide nectar for our pollinators.

Weeds do have some benefits and they are telling you something – learn to listen.

BY REPORTER STAFF

The Tahoma girls water polo club is returning for its second season.

There will be a team and parent meeting for all at 5 p.m. Monday, Feb. 29 at the Covington Aquatic Center immediately following the first team practice of the 2016 season.

The team operates as a club sport and is not affiliated with Tahoma High School although team organizers hope that one day the school will adopt the sport, according to a press release from Erika Hanger, Tahoma Water Polo Booster Club president.

Practice will be at Covington Aquatic Center located on the Tahoma High School campus.

Some home games throughout the season may be hosted at the Auburn School District Pool due to referee time constraints and availability. Away games will be played at the Enumclaw Aquatic Center and the Auburn pool.

Girls water polo practice officially starts Feb. 29 from 3 to 4:30 p.m. and runs daily Monday through Thursday.

The first regular season game is March 16.

Post season play begins with regionals on May 20 and ends with state finals May 26 to 28.

Tahoma Girls Water Polo Club was formed in 2015 by the parents of local competitive swimmers whose goal is to keep their daughters active after fall swim season ends.

In addition, the team wants to support and grow the under recognized sport of water polo by offering female athletes grades 9 to 12 in local schools the opportunity to play, have fun and develop life skills both in and out of the pool while competing on a local community team.

For more information and to register your daughter please attend the team and parent meeting.

Registration forms are due Friday, Feb. 19.

[ SOLUTIONS from page 1] SEKCAT along with Linda Myers, a retired Auburn schoolteacher. “Such a better, more multifaceted approach and response to the trafficking of young people in South King County (is important).”

According to the U.S. Department of Justice, human trafficking has become the second fastest growing criminal industry – just behind drug trafficking – with children accounting for roughly half of all victims. And Washington state remains a hotbed for human trafficking. The state’s international border with Canada and its many ports make Washington prone to such exploitation, according to reports.

Seattle Against Slavery, a grassroots coalition working to mobilize the community in the fight against sex and labor trafficking, reported 200 youths in the area were trafficked in the last two years.

Washington Engage, a nonprofit organization, is focused on preventing human trafficking and protecting those who are vulnerable. The group is provided the foundation in partnering with area CATs (coalition against trafficking) to combat and prevent

the problem through education, programs and combined resources.

“There is so much going on in our area. There is so much that we are doing and that we can do,” Frances Walker-Dudenhoefer, executive director of WA Engaged, told the group at the forum.

The city of Kent is trying to do its part. Fines and other associated assessment fees for those arrested and charged for prostitution have gone back into the community to support the victims and survivors and aid further enforcement, Thomas said. Police have put between $15,000 and $20,000 back into support programs in each of the past two years, he said.

As human trafficking has changed, so too have the laws and police tactics.

Kent Police are now enforcing a new ordinance that essentially requires massage parlors and its employees to operate with appropriate licenses and certifications. Failure to do so will lead to misdemeanors and fines, Thomas said.

Police remain steadfast in going after the major traffickers, but going after a nuisance, Backpage.com, has been another matter.

During last year’s sting, a disguised, police-posted

ed by the public. Three alternates will also be selected. Each winner will perform the national anthem at one of the 2016 Washington State Fair concerts and/or rodeo performances, Sept. 2-25, 2016.

The 21 grand prize winners will receive one-night double occupancy standard hotel accommodations for winners who live outside a 100-mile radius of the Washington State Fair Event Center, six tickets to the concert or rodeo performance for which they are performing the national anthem, $200 cash, and a Fair gift bag.

Cost of the meals, transportation, gratuities, and all other expenses not specified as part of the prize package are the sole responsibility of the winner.

classified advertisement in the adult listings on Backpage.com attracted more than 80 inquiries in less than four hours. The ploy led to a dizzying number of arrests that stretched the police force, Thomas said.

The website, Thomas insisted, is “about 99 percent” set up to manage illegal trafficking.

“In my opinion, the only reason for its existence is to further human trafficking,” he said. “It makes no sense at all why we as a government or as we as people tolerate something like Backpage.com that does so much damage to members of our society.”

Other strategies Washington Engage and coalitions are focusing their attention to preventative and early intervention work.

It is using the Deceptions Program for youth education, an age-appropriate

presentation that increases adolescents’ awareness of youth sexual exploitation and trafficking and Internet safety through a brief education series. It has used Deceptions in the Federal Way School District for nearly three years, training more than 9,000 students and receiving strong endorsements from school administrators. Washington Engage is training school personnel to implement and facilitate the program in their schools.

However, due to the Washington D.C. Emancipation Day holiday being observed on April 15, Tax Day is April 18.

“It’s happening in our schools. It’s hidden in plain sight,” Walker-Dudenhoefer said. “Once you have been educated, once you know about human trafficking, you start seeing it.”

Training is also available for professionals to identify the signs of trafficking in their patients, students and clients.

In 2015, WA Engage provided education and training on human trafficking to more than 1,600 professionals and commu-

nity members.

The effort continues in the Legislature, where coalitions are urging lawmakers to get tougher on trafficking.

And it’s all about reaching the masses.

“Getting the word out is important,” Rufener said.
