You know, it was always like trafficking would be in Philippines or Thailand or let's, you know, raise monies for waters in Africa.

And I'm talking about we are focused on America.

And I couldn't understand.

I had a great childhood, you know, and this is happening?

And so that's it.

That's really what sprung me into action.

And I formed a nonprofit and I just started going places, meeting people, going to Washington.

And, you know, it's really a journey that's really only just begun, in my opinion.

It's such...

Well, first of all, let's start with this is because this is a dark subject, right?

Exploitation.

Nobody could ever imagine their child, their teen might get involved in all of this.

People tend to close the door, close their eyes.

They don't want to talk about it.

That is the truth.

Now, they do want to talk about it after something happens.

But the most important thing is this awareness and prevention piece.
