Founder, Voices Against Trafficking™

“When we allow our children to be sold, to be used as a commodity, to be violated, persecuted, neglected, discarded and preyed upon by criminal influences, we deteriorate as a civilized community. There is nothing civilized about exploitation of the weak, the innocent, the vulnerable for selfish gain.
