The truth behind legal prostitution?
Consent cannot be paid for. While some people may frame prostitution as a choice, the money coerces and manipulates people into doing s*xual acts they wouldn’t freely consent to otherwise.

Join us for a special screening of this impactful film in recognition of Human Trafficking Awareness Month.
Date: January 31
Time: 2:00 PM
Location: National Automobile Museum

Don’t miss this opportunity to experience an award-worthy story that sheds light on the fight against s*x trafficking in Nevada.

Here's the truth:

Human trafficking is often a hidden crime. Victims may be afraid to come forward and get help; they may be forced or coerced through threats or violence; they may fear retribution from traffickers, including danger to their families; and they may not be in possession of or have control of their identification documents.
