An amazing resource for al this publication is here to help make getting involved in supporting legislation (specifically in Nebraska, but much of it is applicable nationally) a little less petrifying and confusing. The best part though? It is written by survivors, for survivors! https://www.survivorsspeakomaha.org/survivorsspeak

Folks who serve trafficking survivors, I want you to think about a few things. Posting this letter as a reminder.
#HumanTraffickingAwarenessMonth 2022
January is Human Trafficking Awareness Month. Every year, I’ve got more and more to say about that. And 2022 is no different. Over the next few weeks, I’ll be linking to some old and new posts and resources on my social platforms. Starting with this one: Save the children?
21 things
Dear Self, I have some advice for you to carry from 2021 into 2022, 21 pieces of advice to be exact.
