The Movement to End Sexual Exploitation w/ Dr. Stephany Powell

Dr. Stephany Powell provides a unique insight into the world of sexual exploitation and trafficking throughout her appearance on Next Steps Forward, which she gained from her thirty years with the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD). This experience, coupled with her passion for education and heart for community, make Dr. Powell an incredible leader in the movement to end sexual exploitation and as the Vice President and Director of Law Enforcement Training and Survivor Services at the National Center on Sexual Exploitation. Chris Meek is honored to welcome Dr. Powell to the program. As Dr. Powell puts it, “I do this work because as a former police officer I have seen the physical and emotional aftermath of human trafficking. Based on this personal knowledge, I don’t want to see another person endure or experience this type of suffering and abuse.”
