Episode Synopsis

Lenchen and Scott from Chains Interrupted, a 501c3 nonprofit dedicated to awareness, prevention, and advocacy around human trafficking and exploitation. They discuss the organization's origins, focusing on a harrowing early case that highlighted the sophisticated methods traffickers use to identify, groom, and coerce victims, particularly young girls, into exploitation. The conversation emphasizes the shift towards prevention education, especially concerning the dangers presented by the internet and social media, where predators can easily connect with vulnerable individuals of all ages. Chains Interrupted is actively working to expand their training programs to schools, businesses, churches, and even law enforcement, highlighting the importance of recognizing the signs of trafficking in various settings.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-daily-plan-it-with-jimmy-olsen--4369462/support.
