AFutureNotAPast SB304 Testimony


Perfecting the Language

There's a committee substitute in the works for SB 304. It does not open the prostitution criminal code section at all but is an alternative way to connect child victims of commercial sexual exploitation with much needed restorative services. It instead charts a clear path for child sex trafficking victims through juvenile court, and recognizes the child s status as a victim of sexual exploitation. Revised language will ensure child victims are admitted into the statewide system of care, while preserving the child s eligibility for victim compensation funds.


What You Can Do

Please call the members of the Senate Judiciary Committee and ask them to support the Committee Substitute to Senate Bill 304 & bring it up for a vote soon! Names and Numbers atRead More

As a national transportation center, Atlanta unwittingly provides a venue for child sexual forced labor. There are countless convenient ways to traffic children in and out of the city to be exploited by a revolving market of customers who travel to and from Atlanta for business and sporting events.

Especially for youth ministers and leaders: The Regional Council of Churches is partnering with the Georgia Dept. of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities in SHARE HOPE. Suicide is a leading cause of death in young people. What is the role of the faith community in ministering to troubled young people? Share Hope is an interfaith social media contest to promote the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. Because we know that just pausing before acting often stops a suicide attempt, 988 is one important tool in fostering a healthy community. Have a look www.988ga.org/faith. This activity could be a great way to start off the school year with your creative youth group. And, your group could win a $250 Pizza Party--there will be ten winners.
