In our season finale Rachel shares her story and passion for raising awareness and helping survivors of human trafficking. Rachel discusses misconceptions regarding trafficking and offers tips for parents. This is a taboo topic that needs to be discussed more as it is misunderstood and victims are labeled and do not receive the help they desperately need and deserve. 

A graduate of UCLA and a personal survivor of human trafficking, Rachel has extensive experience teaching, training, curriculum writing, public speaking and mentoring. Rachel is the author of the nation's most widely used Sex Trafficking Intervention Curriculum, Ending The Game and a powerful new fun Sex Trafficking Intervention Series for Teens called The Cool Aunt Experience. Recently, Rachel was appointed to the United States Advisory Council on Human Trafficking for a term of 2 years.
