“Your training changed not only how I plan to work with clients moving forward, but also how I treat the kids in my family and neighborhood. I’m a mentor to a lot of them; they look up to me. And now I’m really seeing the impact our culture and slutshaming has on them. This whole presentation really changed stuff for me.”

What People Are Saying
“What I loved about your training - that people walked out with information they could apply immediately. I actually got a call from a counselor who wanted to call the hotline number with a parent after your presentation to the network. So just know that this is having an immediate impact on our students already.”
— Prevention and Intervention Liaison Supervisor
“I am reviewing the PowerPoint slides and loving it all over again. I especially loved that you touched on the Adultification of black girls.
It was all very educational but also able to be implemented immediately if needed. Thank you for the time and effort you are putting into this.”

“Alea was an engaging and dynamic presenter and teacher. Alea educated our staff as to the intricacies of Human Trafficking, CSEC, and its psychological impact on and prevalence among our youth population. We learned how to respond to a youth in order to create a sense of safety and harm reduction. Alea was able to engage our staff, remembering to check in for self-care, as even the most seasoned workers can experience visceral or secondary trauma as a result of the heaviness, severity, and potential tragic outcomes associated with human trafficking. Alea’s professionalism was evident throughout the training, as she remained laser focused on the topic while taking the time to do a litmus test of our staff's wellness and emotional needs simultaneously. Clearly, Alea is an expert in her field with many years of relevant experience. This shows in her engagement and teaching abilities.”
