Donny Pauling will share how pornography is a driving factor that is not only fueling the rise in men purchasing illegal sex, but victimizes the women behind the camera.
By: Trafficking In America Conference “Trafficking In America Task Force has had a lot of resistance to addressing the demand part of the traditional business model of supply and demand. Regardless, we will continue to move forward with this as a clear focus. Without addressing the demand – why men are willing to purchase illegal sex of women, men, and children, by the millions every day – the circle known as human trafficking will only grow wider and more far reaching. The Trafficking In America Conferences are designed for the general public to become informed and educated by experts and authorities; Along with Pauling, presenting Friday morning, attendees will hear from Rus Ervin Funk on the topic: "Preventing Violence Against Women." Rus is a long time advocate and activist working to expand human rights and prevent violence.

About Trafficking in America Task Force Trafficking in America Task Force is a 501c3 non-profit charitable organization whose founders have been working since 2004 to educate the American population about the reality of the sale of American women, men, and children into sexual slavery for the profit and pleasure of their perpetrators, and that the forced labor trafficking of both adults and children is real in this country. Our vision is to help eliminate the human trafficking of women, men and minor children in America, and to provide a culture for our children free of sexual exploitation and slavery, where people know and own their own intrinsic value.
