Pope Francis referred to human trafficking as an “open wound on the body of contemporary society.” It is a serious affront to human dignity, preying upon the most vulnerable and further dehumanizing them through exploitation. Join Bon Secours St. Francis Health System for a half-day of presentations by internationally recognized experts on human trafficking to learn what role you can play in our community’s response to this humanitarian crisis.
This seminar is a multidisciplinary event open to all who seek to make our community and world a better place for God’s people. It is intended to educate and increase awareness of human trafficking, highlight the necessity of community collaboration, and give hope to those being victimized and exploited.
The event is free to attend, but registration is required.
Free CME/CEU/CLE credit available

Five years ago, the graduation rate at Gettys Broome High School was below the state average. Now the Upstate high school tops the state.
Educators at the school credit no single solution with turning the tide. But two strategies in particular helped. First, they assigned every single senior a faculty mentor who checks in with them multiple times throughout the year. Second, they redesigned the lunch period to create space during the school day for remediation and extracurricular activities.
The strategies are ones any school could use. Join the Education Lab for a conversation with Broome educators about how they’re helping students.
Panelists include:
Rodney Graves, Principal at Broome High School
Jermaine Greene, Assistant Principal, Broome High School

Main Event Greenville located at 225 Entertainment Blvd, Greenville, SC, is missing a pivotal part of their upcoming opening. The final shipment of bowling pins to the nearly 50,000-square-foot center is lost, and Main Event is calling on all Greenville residents to help find these very valuable items.
Main Event, one of the fastest growing family entertainment brands in the country, is nearing the official grand opening of its 57th location nationwide. To be ready for opening day, these pins need to be found and we need your help to do it. Main Event will be releasing new information and one clue per day about where the pins can be found on the webpage mainevent.com/greenvillelostpins from Monday, June 26 through Wednesday, July 5. Main Event is offering an invitation to its VIP event for four people as well as free games for a year to the first person to find each pin. The person who finds the golden pin will even win Main Event for Life!
“Lost Pins is a great way for us to introduce ourselves to the community, and it’s a fun activity for Greenville to get a first taste of the Main Event experience,” said says General Manager Danny Glover. “We’re all about creating interactive experience for people to connect and make memories, and Lost Pins is an extension of that.”
The Greenville location will have endless entertainment and activities, including laser tag, video games, virtual reality and billiards, and 22 state-of-the-art bowling lanes, with unique technology and VIP seating. The location also features Main Event’s signature in-center dining experience, Family Kitchen, designed for guests to create lasting memories while indulging in its handcrafted, flavorful American-classic dishes with a twist.
