Council interviews two candidates for Human Trafficking Prevention Committee
Summary
The Council interviewed two applicants for the Human Trafficking Prevention Committee who emphasized trauma‑informed approaches, multi‑agency coordination, language and cultural access, and outreach to marginalized populations; clerks will follow up on appointments.
The Council interviewed Nalini Closz and Lily Cozema for voting slots on the Human Trafficking Prevention Committee. Both candidates described professional experience working with vulnerable populations, multi‑agency collaboration, and a commitment to trauma‑informed service models. Closz cited decades of federal labor work and committee experience that included forced labor monitoring and enforcement‑working groups; Cozema described her work as a family division magistrate handling cases involving immigrants, domestic violence and trauma‑informed processes.
Council members thanked both candidates and noted the committee's role advising Health and Human Services and coordinating county responses to trafficking. The clerk said the Council would be in touch regarding appointments.
