Holbeck has a master’s degree in social work and joined the R.I.S.E. Advocacy team as the Sexual Assault Counselor in August 2022. She then completed specialized training in the field of Human Trafficking in order to be able to provide training and education to the community.

“We’re honored to be a part of bringing this event to our community,” said Amy Fisher, Dean of Business & Professional Studies at Mid. “This is a very important topic that impacts community members more often than people might think, and we’re eager to help raise awareness surrounding human trafficking.”
The event is sponsored by R.I.S.E. Advocacy, Mid Michigan College, Zonta Club of Mt. Pleasant, and HopeWell Ranch.
