SUMMARY:Voices of Freedom:  An Oral History of Efforts to Address  Human Trafficking
DESCRIPTION:We are proud to announce the launch of Voices of Freedom\, an archive of more than 80 recorded conversations featuring the reflections of survivors of human trafficking and allied professionals in the field. In these personal and powerful stories\, participants share some of the moments that shaped them\, the lessons they have learned\, and their hopes for the future of the anti-trafficking field. They also examine the legacy of the Trafficking Victims Protect Act of 2000 and chronicle progress before and after the landmark legislation. \nReady to listen? Join us on July 30 at 1 p.m. EST for the Voices of Freedom launch. We’ll highlight major themes and feature discussions from participants in the archive. \nA collaborative effort between StoryCorps\, the HHS Office on Trafficking in Persons\, and the Administration for Native Americans\, Voices of Freedom serves as a testament to the power of conversation\, storytelling\, and oral history. The archive preserves the voices of those who have informed\, shaped\, and contributed to the successes of the anti-trafficking field over the past two decades. \nVoices of Freedom archives a diverse range of lived experiences\, contributing to the democratization of historical records. The stories challenge us to reexamine the past to ensure the voices of those experiencing trafficking in the present are heard. These firsthand accounts of how survivors’ experiences have changed over the past 20 years will be preserved in the StoryCorps Archive at the American Folklife Center. \nLearn more about the Voices of Freedom initiative and add your story to the archive. \nRegister for the Voices of Freedom launch on July 30th.

SUMMARY:Follow the Money\, Find the Traffickers: Human Trafficking and the Financial Sector
DESCRIPTION:Follow the Money\, Find the Traffickers: Human Trafficking and the Financial Sector \nheld on: July 16th\, 2021\, 10:00 – 11:30 am EST \n Watch the Webinar Replay\nThis free webinar one of the “Third Friday” community training events hosted by BBCAHT and STAC to inform and engage the North Florida community and beyond. We are happy to extend this invitation to friends and colleagues –  please join us!  \n “Follow the money\, find the traffickers” has become a maxim in the world of human trafficking. It is vital for everyone in the community\, not just financial institutions and law enforcement\, to understand how human traffickers use the banking system. Traffickers launder proceeds from exploited youth and adults\, force victims to open accounts\, force youth with clean credit histories to apply for credit cards\, entwine victims their money laundering schemes\, and evade financial system safeguards. Banks need to know how to identify trafficking activity and must train their public-facing staff to be able to pick up on red flags of trafficking. Social services\, child welfare professionals\, anti-human trafficking advocates and all those who are contact points for vulnerable populations and people who are trafficked need to know how this abuse and exploitation occur so they can protect them. \nPresenters:\nMarsha Crowle\, Executive Vice President\, Director of Corporate Compliance\, Capital City Bank Group;\nRobin Hassler Thompson\, Executive Director\, STAC;\nMelissa Wright\, Vice President and Private Banker\, Capital City Bank. \nNOTE: This is Part 1 of a two-part training series. Look for Part 2 in the coming months for more about how traffickers financially exploit trafficked youth to be presented by Marina Anderson and Theresa Kennedy\, Regional Coordinators for the Florida Department of Children and Families. \nSponsors: STAC in affiliation with Big Bend Coalition Against Human Trafficking and the International Rescue Committee. Contact: STAC at stac@surviveandthriveadvocacy.org or 850-597-2080 \n  \n\n  \nSTAC needs your support to sustain these important webinars. Will you donate today? Each gift helps to bring this vital information to the many people who are empowering survivors and preventing human trafficking. The only way we can maintain these programs and this work is with YOUR help.\nSuggested donation: $20

SUMMARY:Human Trafficking & Healthcare: A Special Focus on Telemedicine
DESCRIPTION:Human Trafficking & Healthcare: A Special Focus on Telemedicine \nHosted by Survive and Thrive Advocacy Center and Big Bend Coalition Against Human Trafficking \nTelemedicine has exploded in availability since the onset COVID-19 and\, like many innovations from 2020\, this one is likely to stay with us. Knowing this\, how can today’s world of telemedicine be safe and effective for survivors of human trafficking? What are the issues that healthcare providers need to know when assisting child and adult survivors in person\, as well as during telehealth visits? Can providers make sure that confidentiality and safety are maintained\, and how can providers build trust and ensure that the healthcare needs of their patients are addressed? What are the providers’ responsibilities regarding children and mandatory reporting? Is insurance available for human trafficking survivors in the ACA/health insurance marketplace? How can service providers\, child welfare organizations\, and community members support survivors’ physical and mental health needs during the pandemic and afterward? Using both lecture and role play scenarios\, these questions and more will be answered during this program. This program will benefit everyone\, not only those in healthcare. \nPresenters: Suzanne Harrison\, MD\, FAAFP\, FAMWA\, Director of Clinical Programs\, Professor of Family Medicine and Rural Health\, FSU College of Medicine; Graciela Marquina\, MSW\, Victim Assistance Director\, STAC; Robin Hassler Thompson\, JD\, MA\, Executive Director\, STAC; Allison Wiman\, RN\, BSN\, MPH\, Big Bend AHEC – Big Bend Rural Health Network. \nSponsors: STAC\, in affiliation with Big Bend Coalition Against Human Trafficking and the IRC. \n  \n\n  \nSTAC needs your support to sustain these important webinars.

SUMMARY:Helping Florida Schools Keep Kids Safe from Human Trafficking
DESCRIPTION:Watch the On-demand Replay: https://youtu.be/prxtvfWdL8w \nHelping Florida Schools Keep Kids Safe from Human Trafficking \nPresented by: Elizabeth Fisher Good\, Kyra Montaque\, and Shannon Meyer from Selah Way \nHosted by: Survive and Thrive Advocacy Center and Big Bend Coalition Against Human Trafficking \nRegister at: tinyurl.com/4d8yj46p \nAUDIO will be provided through your computer. Attendance will be limited to the first 1\,000 people who join this event. Please join early. \nFree Webinar Certificate \nThis free\, certificate webinar is one in a series that BBCAHT and STAC are providing during this time of social distancing and to keep up our Third Friday training schedule. We are happy to extend this invitation to friends and colleagues throughout the Big Bend and beyond – please join us! The Florida Department of Education mandates that all school districts educate students and staff about\nhuman trafficking. One program doing this work through a “train the trainer” model is Selah Way Foundation\, a global network of best practices and service providers in the global anti-sex trafficking movement. The Selah Way Foundation has developed a program to provide school districts\, including all faculty/staff and K-12th graders with S.P.E.A.K. UP\, a unique train-the-trainer model. Student Prevention Education & Advocacy for kids (S.P.E.A.K. UP) is a turn-key train the trainer model that provides schools and beyond with a top-down approach ensuring all faculty and staff are educated on how to protect students and recognize the red flags\, and includes curricula for K-12th grade students. Presenters with the Selah Way Foundation will discuss the issue of human trafficking\, schools\, and how local communities can develop programming using a collaborative model. They also will focus on how important it is for\nchildren to be informed about both sex and labor trafficking and how to partner in community with local programs\, child welfare\, and other local stakeholders. \nContact STAC at (850) 597-2080 or STAC@SurviveAndThriveAdvocacy.org \n### \nABOUT OUR SPEAKERS: \nKyra Montaque is the Southeast Prevention Coordinator for Selah Freedom. She spent 7 years working for the public school system and her goal was to ensure the success of all children regardless of background. Since coming on board with Selah Freedom in 2017 Kyra now carries the same passion she had in the classroom with her to work to prevent and equip not only children\, but also adults with the knowledge that is needed to end sex trafficking and exploitation. In her current role she is able to create the trainings and curriculum needed to bring awareness to this issue but also train and speak on the problems that our young people face and what adults can do to be a part of the solution. \nShannon Meyer is an educator turned teacher-advocate with a passion for empowering teachers and parents with the knowledge and freedom of being trauma-informed and creating all-access instruction. As an educator from inner-city Los Angeles\, she transitioned to a role as an instructional coach and watched teachers and school leaders respond with tremendous enthusiasm to the knowledge of the brain and how it impacts learning and student interactions.  \nIn addition\, receiving training and certification under the Gates College-Ready Promise Grant\, Shannon is skilled at identifying the most powerful levers of success for planning\, instruction\, and classroom management. Using the power of the whole-child approach to education\, as well as other training in Positive Discipline and Cognitive Coaching\, she has been able to empower teachers and school leaders to know their students more deeply and respond\, rather than react.  This knowledge is also empowering to students as they learn how to better listen and communicate with each other.   \nWhether school leaders want to unify their staff\, or teachers want to reduce student conflict\, Shannon believes that knowing how information is processed in the brain is key to building a more cohesive and healthy school community.  She has a passion and love for supporting educators and creating custom learning experiences to grow their practice. \nElizabeth Fisher Good became a leader in the anti-sex trafficking movement by co-founding Selah Freedom. She has been instrumental in providing freedom to nearly 10\,000 survivors since 2011. Out of Selah Freedom\, another dream has been born. The Selah Way Foundation created in 2018 collaboratively brings together the leading organizations across the United States and globally to provide best practices and proven models to eradicate sex trafficking and sexual abuse. Three initiatives work together to achieve this goal: Prevention\, Protection\, and Provision. \nElizabeth is a passionate pioneer and inspirational thought leader with a desire to expose the root of the issue behind sex trafficking\, childhood sexual abuse. She is the author of Groomed (Harper Collins\, 2020)\, which recounts her own story of loss\, trauma\, and triumph. Fisher Good dedicates her life to helping women from all backgrounds discover how to live free from past traumas\, strongholds\, and lies they may have been groomed to believe about themselves. She guides readers toward an understanding that grooming is often subtle\, but it’s always life-altering. She offers readers a way to overcome their past\, starting with an all-important but rarely explored concept. \nThe concept is a selah\, or a time of rest and reflection\, and helps explore active ways to forgive and move forward to a whole new level of freedom. Elizabeth’s authentic\, transparent\, and natural approach is refreshing and comforting to readers\, no matter their stage of life. She is empathetic yet all resolve. \nSRQ Magazine\, in their article Fight For the Innocents\, describes Elizabeth as “Part healer\, part businesswoman\, all resolve—if Selah Freedom is bringing light into the darkness\, as the slogan says\, then Fisher is the one behind the megawatt.” She is the recipient of the prestigious New York City Global Business Leader Award and The Tampa Bay Business Woman of the Year Award. \n  \n\n  \nSTAC needs your support to sustain these important webinars.
