As we move forward, in providing more freedom and equality, and basic human rights for all, we have, on the other side, this horrible effect. Do we really need millions more victims in order to truly feel this wake up call? I really wonder. How many more 13 year old girls, your daughter, my sister, our children, need to be forced into prostitution. "This means that we need to look at our systems in a different way... We need an across-systems approach. If you are exploited and you come in contact with law enforcement, thats another system." "I was taken somewhere blindfolded, and raped many times, and beaten because I was resisting. I was forced to wear sexually provocative clothes. I was repeatedly threatened in order to obey them, especially by the life and freedom of my little sister. I was constantly reminded of how easy it was for her to be in my place." -Kohut "He promised me that he would care for me and love me and be there like nobody else was... but this man exploited me from the age of 10, on the street, in papers, massage parlors, craigslist, strip clubs. I had seen about it all by the age of 15. -Pettigrew 120,000 Nearly men, women, and childrenhave been trafficked fromthe Ukraine How is Ukraine's government involved?

In 2006 Ukraine's government passed a bill prohibiting all forms of sexual slavery and sexual trafficking (Article 149 of Criminal Code). 80% Of victims are homeless children who live on the streets. How is this able to happen? Many children in the Ukraine are not registeredwhen they are born, making them hard to track. four Children as young as are sexually exploited
