We invite everyone to this conversation, folks of all backgrounds please join the call. Whether you're learning for the first time or you are pro-sex work or you believe that nothing about the sex trade is work, all are welcome. Your engagement is invaluable. Come share, come learn, we want to hear from you. Register today.

 

Quick thoughts...

Every day and everywhere, people are bought and sold for sex, and rarely does it ever make the news. And when it makes the news as sex trafficking, it becomes a trending topic with high profile cases, i.e. Epstein, Maxwell, P. Diddy, and powerful people at the center of it.

The scale of the sex trade industry is massive. There’s TOO much jargon! It can be confusing and hard to make sense of it all. Here are the key players that make up the industry: they are the buyers, the facilitators, and the people who are being bought and sold for sex.

 

2026 is all about COMMUNITY!  

 

Community, Relationships, and Reducing Stigma helps people move their lives forward. Let’s talk about it!

 

What we think—asking our community to help is

THE sustainable solution to a shared problem. 

 

With so much going on in the world, it can be overwhelming to care about all of the important things that are happening to us and the people around us. How do we show up for ourselves and for each other so that we’re effectively managing the chaos. 

 

There’s ICE

There’s Healthcare

There’s Job loss 

There’s Inflation

There’s Imminence of War 

There’s The have’s and have not’s

There’s Lack of Justice for Epstein Survivors

There’s what we have control over and what we don’t

 

Don't wait and Register Today! We want to hear from you.
