Challenges to Exiting the Life

What are the challenges an individual faces when leaving a trafficking situation? The truth is there are more factors than we can mention in this one episode, It’s complicated. That’s why we wanted to focus this episode on discussing some of the barriers one faces when exiting the sex industry.

We invited Allison Madrigal of Rescue America to talk about their work in helping to facilitate exits across the U.S.  Rescue America is a national nonprofit that exists to rescue, revive, and empower the sexually exploited through a 24/7 hotline and emergency care program.
