About This Event

A Village for One and Safety Compass are hosting a screening of "Surviving Sex Trafficking" for Human Trafficking Prevention Month. Please join us to watch this award-winning documentary about the real-life challenges of escaping sex trafficking and healing on the other side.

Surviving Sex Trafficking examines the ongoing struggles of those survivors as they desperately fight to break free of their past, heal their bodies and minds, reconnect with a world of hope, and reclaim their lost humanity. Through conversations with victims and trips to women’s shelters around the world, Surviving Sex Trafficking reveals their stories and how they escaped, how they continue to survive, and how they live day to day with the repressed trauma from the horrific events they experienced. 

A Village for One empowers the members of our community – our village – to unite in an effort to heal the impact of commercial sexual exploitation by providing a safe and healthy environment of healing for our impacted youth and through additional training, outreach, and advocacy.

Safety Compass Oregon exists to extend relentless hope and navigational support for survivors of commercial sexual exploitation and human trafficking. Our team of advocates provides an open door for survivors to take the first steps in the healing process.

The film will be followed by a live panel discussion on how this issue of sex trafficking impacts Oregon, and what we as a community are doing to support survivors.
