On this week's episode, Emily sat down with Linda Ellis-Williams, Senior Managing Director of Victim Services of the YWCA of Central Virginia. The YWCA is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all.
Linda speaks about why the BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) community is statistically trafficked more and how race creates vulnerabilities in an individual's life that can lead into trafficking.
Freedom 4/24 is a nonpartisan 501(c)3 non profit. We believe every human life deserves to be free from exploitation and trafficking.
