NCOSE

Description

Youth Advocate from Maryland, who currently lives in Texas. She has testified in both the Maryland and Texas state legislatures on the Child Device Protection Bill and worked with NCOSE in 2019 to defeat a bill before the DC City Council to fully decriminalize the commercial sex trade. She is passionate about reforming the foster care system because youth are trafficked in that system: “ We must all work together to keep youth and young adults like me safe!”
