The exact number of boys and girls that are being enslaved in the Sex trafficking trade is difficult to determine, but about every 30 seconds another person becomes a victim. This is a GLOBAL concern and billions of dollars are involved.
We wanted to shed light on this topic. We speak with Theresa Caldwell Jenkins who was beaten, starved, locked away in a closet, and sold for sex to men by a family member at the age of 7yrs old. She is now a survivor, published author, and activist through her nonprofit for other victims and other individuals looking to escape the adult entertainment industry.
This podcast is one you definitely want to sit with your young teenagers, and allow them to hear Theresa's story.
