Show notes
Dr. Sandie Morgan and Dave Stachowiak are joined by a cherished member of the GCWJ Community Advisory Board, Cheryl Pittluck. Previously, Cheryl was the Chair of the OCHTTF Faith-Based Action Committee and today is a part of the Ending Human Trafficking Podcast's common mission in ending human trafficking. They look at the value and resources provided by the C.A.R.E. 68 Network to help fight human trafficking.
Key Points
The C.A.R.E. 68 Network helps churches fight human trafficking by providing church-focused resources and a community of peers for collaboration, learning, and inspiration.
This is a beneficial resource for church workers or members who want to get their church involved in the fight against human trafficking but don’t know where to start.
Joining this community will give you access to toolkits, resources for best practices, a private online discussion group, connections to peers in your local area, current anti-trafficking news, and upcoming events.
Churches are in a unique position to be at the front line of our response to this humanitarian crisis because they already have the infrastructure, they know the community, and they are Biblically mandated to speak up for those who don't have a voice.

Transcript
Dave [00:00:00] You're listening to the Ending Human Trafficking podcast. This is episode number 222 - The C.A.R.E. 68 Network.
Production Credits [00:00:08] Produced by Innovate Learning, Maximizing Human Potential.
Dave [00:00:28] Welcome to the Ending Human Trafficking podcast. My name is Dave Stachowiak.
Sandie [00:00:34] And my name is Sandie Morgan.
Dave [00:00:36] And this is the show where we empower you to study the issues, be a voice, and make a difference in ending human trafficking. Sandie, I'm looking forward to today's conversation because we're going to be learning about the C.A.R.E. 68 Network. And I know virtually nothing about the care 68 network. Other than knowing that it's kicking off. And I'm so glad we get to welcome a friend of ours, Cheryl Pittluck to the show today. Cheryl is a member of the Global Center for Women and Justice's Community Advisory Board, and she is the past chair of the Orange County Human Trafficking Task Force and Faith-Based Action Committee. And she has been a friend and a partner to both of us in the work we're doing for many years. And we're so glad to have her on the show today. Hello, Cheryl.
Cheryl [00:01:26] Hi.
Sandie [00:01:27] Hey, I'm so excited about this because Cheryl and I met because someone when I was in Washington, D.C., said there's a woman in Orange County that you need to meet. So, of course, I love meeting people. And I made arrangements to go and meet that person. And that person didn't show up, but Cheryl Pittluck did. And Cheryl Pittluck has been showing up ever since in my life. She was a founding member of our community advisory board for the Global Center. And when I became the administrator of the Orange County Human Trafficking Task Force, Cheryl jumped in and became the chair of at that time, a church committee. And eventually, that morphed into a faith-based committee. And the names have changed. Currently, it's now faith-based action council. Is that right, Cheryl?
Cheryl [00:02:24] Yeah, I started as the faith based advisory council, which was helping the professionals at the task force learn how churches run and how things get done and how we can be more efficient in making use of church resources. And now it's a faith-based action committee.
