Meet Sarah Thompson*, a remarkable 23-year-old woman who not only survived the dark world of human trafficking but has also dedicated her life to helping others in Washington State who were once involved in this heinous crime.
Sarah's journey began when she herself fell victim to human trafficking at the young age of 14. With immense courage and resolute determination, she managed to escape her captors and rebuild her life.
Once free, Sarah took as many classes as possible in human services and social work to enable herself to help others like her who were able to escape the clutches of human traffickers. She also works closely with a group of people who help people escape human trafficking.
Having experienced the horrors firsthand, Sarah understands the trauma and challenges faced by survivors of human trafficking. She founded a non-profit organization that provides a safe and supportive environment for those looking to break free from the chains of exploitation.
