Alliance to End Human Trafficking (AEHT)

The Alliance to End Human Trafficking Remembers Sister Dominica LoBianco It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Sister Dominica LoBianco, a valued member of our network. Sister Dominica was a dedicated volunteer, always willing to lend a helping hand at events and exhibitions.  Many of us had the privilege of working alongside her during our conference exhibitions and Speaker’s Bureau training. Her kindness and warm smile left a lasting impression on everyone she met, and she will be deeply missed.  We ask that you keep Sister Dominica in your prayers. You can read her obituary here: https://lnkd.in/dH5Gxghn May she rest in peace.
