Representatives from the Mexican and Guatemalan consulates took part in an information program hosted by the Granville County Sheriff’s Office Saturday, Oct. 26. – the program from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the sheriff’s office, 525 New Commerce Dr., in Oxford.
The event was designed to provide details the consulates offer, including citizenship applications, passport renewals and guidance on legal and social services, according to a press statement from Granville County Public Information Officer Terry Hobgood.
There were other area resources available, too, including representatives from Families Living Violence Free – Granville County’s domestic violence and sexual assault crisis agency.
Also on hand was N.C. Stop Human Trafficking, a group that fosters awareness on the issue of human trafficking and collaborates with other organizations to fight this global challenge.
