THERESA FLORES: "THE SLAVE ACROSS THE STREET"
Release Date: 1/3/18
All Tickets $10
Survivor and Author Theresa Flores travels the U.S. sharing her story of trafficking and being a sex slave while living in an upper-middle class suburb of Detroit, Michigan. At 15 years of age she was drugged, raped and tortured for two long years — kept in bondage, forced to pay back an impossible debt as a sex slave — all the while living at home, attempting to keep her family safe.
Theresa's organization, TraffickFree builds awareness about domestic sex trafficking and sexually exploited children in the U.S. Their purpose is to educate students, parents, professionals and motel owners/staff on the red flags of trafficking and how to identify a victim. They work in partnership with other organizations to rescue missing adolescents from becoming a human trafficking victim.
