Hello,
The students this year have been excited to share their information with people across the Triangle. This has resulted in the opportunity to be featured on two local television shows: Tarheel Talk and North Carolina Now. We are so excited to share the air times with you. Also, look forward to an article in the News and Observer as well! More information about that will be sent out later.
- Tarheel Talk airs February 5th at 6:30 am on WRAL Fox 50. Check your local listings for your channel. Repeats will air throughout the next few weeks as well
- North Carolina Now airs February 8th at 7:30 pm on UNC-TV. Check your local listings for your channel.

Nations Annual Commission on the Status of Women (CSW). Ms. Bishopric is
doing research on Human and Sex Trafficking in North Carolina. She and
