Childhood Sexual Abuse and/or Child Sex Trafficking are on the rise and many people in our churches are unaware of the epidemic. Maybe the film Sound of Freedom will open people’s understanding.
It is important to realize that foreign trafficking and domestic trafficking are totally different. Foreign kids are taken or sold and put into brothels. Domestic kids are seldom sold, often live in their home, and it’s not unusual for them to attend junior/high school. It’s the second largest crime in America.
Many pastors don’t feel comfortable addressing the situation, yet they know that Child Sexual Abuse is happening in their congregations. Many are unsure of how to approach these families. Where does Clergy Privilege and Mandated Reporting cross boundaries? UNBOUND can help you navigate the waters.
