Join Dr. Natalie Eastman and Susan Mathews as they introduce Sylee Gibson, Corporal (Ret.) Collier County Sheriff's Office, Naples, FL, and her presentation “Hidden in Plain Sight: Sex Trafficking Through the Eyes of a Retired Law Enforcement Officer”
What if one of the greatest threats to the vulnerable in our communities isn't hiding in the shadows, but standing right in front of us?
Sex trafficking isn't always what we imagine. It isn't just a problem in distant cities or foreign countries; it can exist in our own neighborhoods, schools, churches, and communities, often concealed behind ordinary circumstances, familiar faces, and seemingly trustworthy relationships.
Contrary to popular belief, trafficking doesn't always involve strangers, kidnappings, or physical captivity. Instead, victims are often exploited through manipulation, deception, coercion, and misplaced trust.
The unsettling truth is that sex trafficking may be closer than we think. The question isn't simply whether we're looking, but whether we recognize what we're seeing.
Attendees will leave with practical prevention strategies and access to free, credible resources to strengthen child protection in their own communities.
People, Not Products is a free webinar featuring topics related to the anti-human trafficking initiatives around the world and sharing information that the general public must be aware of to eradicate this evil from our communities. The goal is to raise awareness, inspire action, and shed light on practical steps we can all take to combat human trafficking.
The webinar will occur on the first Wednesday every other month at 12 noon (EDT).
Please register and share this invitation with friends, family and colleagues—together we are working Until There Are No More Sold into slavery!
