In recognition of World Day Against Trafficking in Persons, a global day of awareness of sexual exploitation and trafficking, I will be riding in ECPAT-USA's 5 Boro Survivor Solidarity ride on August 1. 

I will join ECPAT-USA's Executive Director, Lori Cohen, and other Survivor Solidarity Riders as we ride through various "hot spots" in New York. These spots have been identified by ECPAT-USA’s Survivors' Council as locations where they were trafficked. We will begin in Hunts Point and end in Staten Island. This Survivor Solidarity Ride will symbolize the empowerment of ECPAT-USA’s Survivors' Council. The team and I hope you will join us in solidarity! 

I am raising funds to support ECPAT-USA survivor-informed programs and would love to have your support!

Together we can demonstrate our unity and commitment to protecting children from the threat of commercial sexual exploitation and trafficking. Every dollar raised goes to ECPAT-USA's mission to protect every child’s human right to grow up free from the threat of sexual exploitation and trafficking. Thank you!

ECPAT-USA is the leading policy organization in the United States seeking to end the trafficking of children. They focus on prevention through private sector engagement, legislative advocacy, youth empowerment and community education. Visit their website here.
