Leading the Way in Preventing Child Sex Trafficking

Leading the Way in Preventing Child Sex Trafficking   In episode 648, learn more about this important topic.   Now more than ever children are at risk for online child exploitation and they do not even have to leave home for it to happen. Any mobile app with a chat feature can put a child at risk. Nor is this isolated to children in lower incomes. Any child can be targeted! There are many organizations that help recover children from forced slavery, there are fewer that are focused on the exploitation of children. Paving the Way Foundation has taken on this mission—in a big way!   Jan Edwards is the founder of Paving the Way Foundation which is committed to empowering communities to be a fierce disruption in the cycle of child trafficking and online exploitation through highly engaging and empowering educational programs.   Jan is spearheading a national information campaign with schools, parents, teens in middle and high schools, the media, and other critical organizations on how to spot, resist and report perpetrators.  Listen to learn more about why she started this and about how to stay alert to this important topic.
