If you want to know how you can support children who've been trafficked, I invite you to take a look at our fundraising campaign as well as our website. As a mom to children who were trafficked, help isn't just necessary until the rescue. It's necessary after as well. Not only will your donations help me take care of my children, it allows me to put more content out to help parents who are also in my situation.

Please take a moment to research and share my podcast and my donation campaign.

Addressing the lack of disclosure is crucial to understanding the true extent of the pe******ia problem. We stand united in breaking the silence, supporting survivors, and advocating for a safer future. Together, let's shine a light on this hidden reality and protect our children. 💪💙⠀
