Thank you so much.
My current branch of Timea's Cause is called TC Online Institute. We created an online education and training program for law enforcement for the very reason.... It's affordable, and everyone can get it. The hope was that eventually the government would reach out and we could work with the government to put this training out. Unfortunately, again, we were denied funding and support for that. So, now the police agencies are kind of left to their own devices and whatever grant they can get to purchase these courses. The good news is that the up-to-40-hour human trafficking detection course is now being adopted by the Canadian Police Knowledge Network, which is Canada's top online institute for law enforcement.
We have the potential to reach all police officers in Canada, but, again, it's not a mandate; it's just hit and miss, whoever wants it. The Peel Regional Police took the initiative to mandate that all 2,200 officers get our training. Other agencies came along as well, but we are far from reaching all officers. The training has received five stars so far.
