It is not all sunshine and blue sky of course. Florida and the Sarasota Area have ugly parts that most of us don't see. I don't mean a run-down building or neighborhood but the very nasty world of sex trafficking.
But thankfully one local organization is dedicated to bringing light into this darkest of worlds.
TODAY, It is my pleasure to welcome Stacey Efaw of SelahFreedom.com, which is an organization dedicated to helping victims of the sex trafficking trade.
In today's episode, you will learn ...
- What caused her to transition from the Humane Society dealing with animals to the much tougher world of people and sex trafficking
- What Selah Freedom does and the crucial services they provide
- What most people don’t know about sex trafficking
- How you can get involved as a caring and concerned citizen
... and much much more!
Thank you so much for tuning in today.
Please remember to listen, learn and connect!
