This image was drawn when I was 17 years old, just before I was trafficked for the first time, but after I had been raped, assaulted, and used by a multitude of men. Healing from that dark time has taken decades, and is still a process, but I am now a professor and director of a nonprofit which serves survivors of sex trafficking. We have all felt so small and unsafe and alone- but together, in a community of survivors, we can grow and heal and thrive.
