YLW has been a proud partner of #NotInMyCity since 2021. We invite you to learn more about how to identify human trafficking and what to do if you think you are witnessing human trafficking, by visiting https://lnkd.in/g_QVq5Em #WorldDayAgainstTraffickinginPersons
Human trafficking is real, devastating, and happening in Alberta and across Canada, but there is hope. This World Day against Trafficking in Persons, we’re encouraging you to take #NotInMyCity’s free e-Learning program, have a conversation about it, and share it with someone. You can join the tens of thousands who have already determined that they are going to do something to end this crime. Since 2017, #NotInMyCity has been raising awareness and disrupting child sexual exploitation and human trafficking, and the movement is growing. There is an awakening happening in Canada, an accelerating awareness of this crime. #NotInMyCity is pleased to work with all partners, including the Government of Alberta, to prioritize this issue. Awareness plus action ends exploitation and human trafficking. Take the course here: https://lnkd.in/eDFxpMS

Did you know that Mill Creek, part of the serene Mill Creek Regional Park, runs right under our runway? This vital wildlife corridor is essential for maintaining the biodiversity and health of the surrounding environment, allowing various species to move freely and thrive. Preserving Mill Creek is crucial to prevent contamination that could harm the ecosystem. In 2020, YLW took a significant step by constructing a new oil-water separator. This system effectively prevents oil and silt from entering the creek, ensuring that the water remains clean and the habitat is protected. By safeguarding Mill Creek, we help maintain the natural beauty and biodiversity of the area, ensuring it remains a vibrant and healthy ecosystem for future generations. #WorldNatureConservationDay #Biodiversity #MillCreek #Sustainability #YLW Learn more about environmental initiatives at YLW: ylw.kelowna.ca/enivornment
