    // Design Info

    Wallpaper: use it - it adds a visual point of interest. Search "peel and stick wallpaper" with the color/design you want.

    Paint: The new neutrals are creamy whites & variations of greige. No yellow undertones!

    Lighting: try ultra-daylight bulbs and your rooms will go from yellow to white!

    Design "no no" for Farmhouse Décor: the "X" symbol in the barn doors, tables, etc... keep at a minimum! Update your look with straight lines & minimal detail.

    // Human Trafficking Info

    Pursuit 3416: A ministry that will bring awareness & prevention to schools and organizations. Contact pursuit3416@gmail.com

    Hotline: 1-888-373-7888. Save to contacts. Call if you see ANYTHING suspicious or your intuition is causing a question.

    Sex trafficking: when a commercial sex act is induced by force, fraud or coercion.

    Labor Trafficking: when individuals perform labor or services through the use of force, fraud, or coercion for little or no money.

    Common forms of recruitment into Sex Trafficking:

    • Runaways (1 in 7 teens lured into prostitution within 48 hrs of leaving)
    • Manipulation on Social Media/in person Family/Relational selling
    • Pornography/prostitution, small % kidnapping

    How to spot a trafficker and/or victim:

    • “Parents” with children: child uncomfortable, fear, no eye contact, abuse/somethings wrong, child hypersexualized
    • Someone “fake” shopping, girls sent around to troll/provocative dress
    • Couples: something is off/no eye contact-abuse-control
    • Truck Stop: watch for young women/men entering trucker cabs.
    • Branded tattoos: bar codes, daddy’s girl, my bi***
    • Teens: suddenly have clothes they can't afford, acting out, nervous, shamed,overly confident, drug use

    Many short videos on YouTube do a great job explaining trafficking

    //Recommended Midwest Finds

    • Nashville: Poindexter Coffee, Anzie Blue, White Limozeen, Hampton Social
    • St. Louis: Hygge, Rise Coffee House, Hello Juice and Smoothie
    • Kansas City: Made in KC, Outta the Blue, McLain’s Market
