 As an advocate and a survivor of prostitution, I know first-hand the harms of the sex trade and the importance of ending sexual exploitation. Being in prostitution involves violence on a regular basis. If we don't start elimanating the demand side of the sex trade, thousands of women and children in Chicago will continue to be victimized. I am grateful that an organization like CAASE exists. The important work of CAASE helps ensure that other indivisuals will not have to experience the physical and psychological trauma infllicted onto so many women and girls in prostitution."
