Dear VAYA Members and Supporters,
Recently this month, VAYA's very own Community Relations Coordinator (Non-Vietnamese Community), Calix Vu-Bui, has been selected as VietACT's 2009 Intern (http://www.vietact.org/). Calix will be departing for Taiwan in September to intern at the Vietnamese Migrant Workers and Brides Office (http://www.taiwanact.net/) where she will learn more about human trafficking by engaging herself in various case studies, policy research, and special projects. Please check out the VietACT Intern Blog to read more about Calix and the VietACT International Internship Program: http://vietactintern.blogspot.com/.
