Getting Tools and Tips into the Hands of M.H. Therapists

Last week we had the privilege to share Anti-Trafficking toolkits to therapist from multiple states, who joined in via Microsoft Teams.

Each received a toolbox that included;

Screening tools for both adults and youths. The screeners can be used in their private practices with no additional fee to the client. Current statistics and vulnerable populations were included along with free online safety videos for children.

Two issues that we researched and presented were AI and its affects on Human Trafficking, and Pornography’s role in Human Trafficking.

Please share with us what you know about AI related to Human Trafficking or Pornography’s role in Human Trafficking. We are always open to learning more.

January is Human Trafficking Awareness month – Wear blue to show your support.

Book Signing Hack

Rocio Casanova Library Children’s Specialist & Jennifer Norton Library Director

Last week we offered a free training on Human Trafficking to 18 individuals who came to meet the “Meet the Author” event at the Lexington Public Library. Not a single book sold but our mission was accomplished for the day; spreading awareness. The audience gave positive feedback and many said that they were going to share what they learned with their friends and families.

So far we have been able to offer trainings and resources to 751 people since Aug 1, 2024. In large part it is due to the people and business in Dawson and Gosper counties in NE who support us.

After an anti-trafficking presentation for our 5K participants at Canyon Lakes Brewery a new crowd joined us for a Pit Master contest.

The Winners “Ron and David Mayer”, “Central Ne Human Trafficking”, and “Gustavo Ruiz & Gerardo Alonzo” we all in high spirits.

Dawn and Shawn Cromer were our professional level BBQs who served with a full heart and willingness to fight against this crime. One of the best parts of the day was having fun while discussing such a heavy topic.

Mid-Plains Community College

McCook Community College and North Platte Community College hosted presentations to staff Thursday to discuss the issue of human trafficking and help raise awareness about its prevalence in area communities.

Stacey Cahill of “Traffic Stop-Voices Against Human Trafficking” and co-founder Lisa Moline provided insights into the various forms of human trafficking and methods for combating this crime.

This non-profit travels from community to community offering a free informative and interactive presentation with awareness skills.

It all started with a book.

“When people have many adverse child experiences (ACE Score) such as sexual, physical, and emotional abuse combined with abandonment, shame, ridicule, and tragic suffering often we are unequipped to know/sense or see red flags. These traumas make it difficult to know that we can stop or walk away from new traumatic experiences. Because our normal is tragic suffering and dysfunction, we do not know how to keep ourselves safe. Our negative experiences are higher than those who have a lower ACE score, even in adulthood. Therefore, we are flash-flooded with ‘messed-up’ experiences throughout our lifetime (it is as if our security system was not installed). Our PTSD responses compound and grow. We explain this for you to understand why we are jumping and bouncing all around in this novel. It is because of Marley’s trauma and her high ACE score. Finding a way to express this phenomenon happened after years of processing, writing, and editing this novel side by side.”

With Love, 

Stacey Cahill and Lisa Molina

We can no longer be silent. We stand to be the voice for those entrapped by the billion-dollar Human Trafficking industry. We want parents and grandparents to keep their children close. We will research, speak out, and protect boys and girls from sexual predators who are everywhere.

We are offering educational presentations on ways to prevent & report Human Trafficking. Our informative sessions last up to 1 hour. While we are sharing up-to-date content, “Traffic Stop: Human Division” by Stacey Cahill will be available for purchase, and donations will be taken to support Missing and Murdered Indigenous People programs.
