Description:

IT S NOT JUST AN INTERNATIONAL ISSUE.You may have heard the term sex trafficking and thought that it was just an international issue. While the term trafficking may conjure images of desperate illegal immigrants being forced into prostitution by human smugglers, over 80 percent of victims in 2011 confirmed sex trafficking cases in this country were American citizens. Or, maybe, you heard about the recent case in Ohio where three girls were kidnapped and kept as sex slaves and you thought it was just one guy with a serious problem.Think again. It s happening in plain sight, and you probably don t even realize it.80%WOMEN GIRLS 80% of sex trafficking victims are women and girls and up to 50% are minors. (U.S. State Department) 90%ABUSED AS A CHILD 90% of prostituted women have been physically abused as children (Encyclopedia of Women and Gender). 70%LINKED TO ORGANIZED CRIME 70% of sex trafficking is linked to organized crime (Real Stories: Legal Efforts to Curb Sex Trafficking). 75%ATTEMPT SUICIDE 75% of prostituted women have attempted suicide (Prostitution: Factsheet on Human Rights Violations).  AVERAGE AGE12-14 is the average age for girls trafficked into prostitution in the United States.PIMP S YEARLY INCOMEWorking nearly seven days a week, four women meeting a daily quota of $500 per night would earn their pimp an estimated $632,000 according to the research of the Polaris Project.WHERE IT S HAPPENINGDid you know that women and children are being forced, frauded, and coerced into what amounts to sexual slavery?ESCORT SERVICESWhether a date is acquired on Craigslist.com or Backpage.com or by calling a number on a newspaper ad, escort services are nothing more than thinly-veiled prostitution.MASSAGE PARLORSThere are over 4,000 brothels disguised as fake massage businesses in the United States according to online lists meticulously updated by “johns” on a daily basis. TRUCK STOPSOften insulated from local communities, truck stops and welcome centers are convenient places for transient customers to purchase sex with minimal concerns of detection.STREETS, MOTELS, RESIDENTIALWhile you may think of a prostitute walking down the street, it s more likely that she s living and working out of a motel or local residence and setting up dates via phone.WHAT WE RE LAUNCHINGIn an effort to raise awareness of sex trafficking in the US and promote positive solutions, we are launching:DOCUMENTARYExecutive produced and narrated by Natalie Grant and released into stores nationwide by Word Films, the feature-length documentary features six modern-day abolitionists as they fight sex trafficking across America. Journeying to six US cities, the documentary opens the viewer’s eyes to what’s happening down the street in plain sight . Through engaging interviews with numerous victims of sex trafficking, the force, coercion, and deception of the children and women becomes apparent. In the midst of the darkness, stories of hope and freedom emerge as each survivor shares how she was impacted through the work of a sex trafficking aftercare home.31 DAY STUDY GUIDEAvailable on Amazon.com now and released into stores nationwide, the IN PLAIN SIGHT: 31 Day Devotional Group Study Guide is a faith-based journey to understand God s heart for the vulnerable and broken within our world. While stories of sex trafficking survivors and abolitionists will be interwoven each week, the workbook is designed to be read as a daily devotional and discussion guide challenging you and your group to cultivate compassion and start taking action in your own community.MUSIC ALBUMTo help fund the work of Hope for Justice and released into stores by Word Records, we have compiled an accompanying music album featuring hymns recorded by well-known artists who turn our attention to the hope and healing needed to overcome this darkness. Not only is this an album that can be enjoyed on your own, we hope you’ll utilize the songs in a time of weekly worship as you gather with your small group (lyrics included in the back of the group study guide).OUR TEAMWe ve assembled a dedicated team of professionals to produce IN PLAIN SIGHT including:RAN JACKSONAn award-winning artist, writer, producer, composer who has toured the globe and shared stages with some of music’s biggest hitmakers. linkedinrss AUSTIN THOMPSONLead cinematographer and editor for Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, CA. facebookinstagram DIRK DALLAS13 years of film, television, photography and design production experience and a Professor of Digital Media at California Baptist University in Southern California. twitterinstagram
