A monthly meeting offers the opportunity for women in business to network and discuss issues that affect them in the workplace.

The Women’s Leadership Group meeting is put on by the St. Joseph Chamber of Commerce along with the Northwest Missouri State University Small Business and Technology Development Center.

The free event is offered on the fourth Monday of each month and features a different topic each time.

St. Joseph Chamber Director of Communications and Marketing Kristi Bailey said, this month, U.S. Attorney Teresa Moore will be speaking on the topic of human trafficking in the region.

“While, you might not think that’s a huge topic for business, it really can be. One, most of the women there are probably mothers or aunts or sisters of people with children, but also, we, as a business community, need to be on the lookout for signs of human trafficking as that problem grows throughout the country,” Bailey said. “A lot of times, people like utility workers, people that go into people’s homes, maybe termite inspectors, things like that, they might, if educated properly, be able to pick up on a signal and alert police of this problem.”

Bailey said the event includes time to ask questions, have discussion and network.

The next Women’s Leadership Group meets from noon to 1 p.m. on Monday, July 23rd, at CoJoe, located at 518 Felix Street. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own lunch. For more information, click here.
