In this episode you will meet Khalila, a wonderful soul!
Hey! Iām Khalila.
I have been a survivor since 2013 and an advocate in the fight against human trafficking since 2020. Just like every survivor, I bring a unique, specific perspective on the issue and my personal story has influenced the work I do. In my years since leaving āthe lifeā, Iāve gained experience and education working in the anti-trafficking field to help others leave exploitation.
I have worked as a residential technician and a case manager, with several organizations such as Hope Center Indy and The Salvation Army in the Greater Cincinnati Anti-Human Trafficking Division.
Currently I serve as a Board Member on the Survivor Advisory Council for the Collaborative to End Human Trafficking, representing the Northeast Ohio Region and am a member of Survivor Alliance.
In 2020 I met and partnered with Dr. Carolyn Knight, the Founder of Light In Darkness Ministries, of which I will soon be leading a chapter of in the Queen City.
I am passionate about helping others find freedom from human trafficking and believe that we all share a responsibility in the fight to do what we can to eradicate this and bring healing to those that are both free and still entrapped.
My long term goal is to establish a refuge for children, young girls, women that are victims and survivors of human trafficking, with the intention of global outreach for this international need.
Iām excited to partner with you in the fight for freedom from modern day slavery!
