Hello Amazing Supporters!
Our newly released short documentary on the life of Tiffany Simpson is here! Please watch, share and help us free Tiffany and survivors like her! After watching, please visit our newly launched Survivor Justice Initiative to learn more about what you can do!
"Lack of Love, a newly released short documentary supports the efforts to free child sex trafficking survivor Tiffany Simpson and begin a movement to ensure all survivors of human trafficking are no longer prosecuted and jailed.
Locked up for the last 9 years in a southern Georgia jail after being forced by her pimp to help him lure another teenage girl into his violent lair, child sex trafficking survivor Tiffany Simpson dreams of swimming in the ocean with her son, Ayden. Lack of Love, as narrated by Tiffany from jail, is her story of learning what love truly is while fighting for her freedom."
Lack of Love is the feature documentary of the Survivor Justice Initiative, a partnership between Karana Rising, Dressember, survivors, allied agencies and legal experts launched to support survivors who are arrested or incarcerated as a result of their human trafficking experience.
The Survivor Justice Initiative supports currently incarcerated survivors by providing direct social and legal support during their unjust incarceration and on their pathway to freedom. On Saturday, May 1, Dressember will host a #FreeTiffany virtual 5K run to raise support for survivors like Tiffany that include wellness supplies, therapy, legal services, access to educational supplies and more.
Believing survivors today means less victims tomorrow.
With gratitude,
Andrea, Tiffany and our entire team!
