Even if You Only Have One Minute, One Hour, or One Day . . .
Dear Friends,
Greetings from GEMS! As we head into the fall season, I’m happy to report that we’ve made a critical partnership with Free the Slaves, mtvU, and Polaris Project for the “Against Our Will” campaign. I worked closely with them on a PSA on johns that captures the reality of the life in just 60 seconds. I hope you will check out this video–and the several other videos and resources–and circulate this campaign info widely. The campaign shows that even if you only have one minute, one hour, or one day, you can make a real difference in the fight against commercial sexual exploitation and trafficking!
On the home front, I am thrilled to tell you that our Training and Technical Assistance Coordinator, Tiffany Rivera . . .
