Watch: Very Young Girls

I had the pleasure of being trained on CSEC, commercial sexual exploitation of children by Rachel Lloyd, founder of GEMS. If you haven't check out their organization or film visit: http://www.gems-girls.org/

In this film, Very Young Girls, "David Schisgall's startling documentary captures the heartbreaking stories of underage girls -- many as young as 13 -- who've been forced into prostitution in New York, exposing how pimps use isolation, violence and drugs to keep girls dependent. Many of the girls interviewed take part in GEMS, a shelter and mentoring program founded by activist Rachel Lloyd -- once a prostitute herself -- that helps them transition out of "the life.""

You can rent it on netflix and host a party to raise money for their organization!
