Jeanne Sarson and Linda MacDonald, our excellent guest speakers at last year's Fall Gathering, have been working for over 20 years to have non-state torture recognized as a criminal offence in Canada. They have made presentations internationally in support of their work and they are sharing with us their recent  article that was published in a peer-reviewed  publication:

No Longer Invisible: Families that Torture, Traffic and Exploit their Girl Child

This is the follow-up to their presentation at the Institute in Spain.  It is free to download so Kanata members may be interested.
Please do feel free to share far and wide.
