Speaking Engagements, Public Awareness & Advocacy
Invite Us to Speak
As survivors of the commercial sex trade, we offer a unique and powerful perspective on what it takes to recover from “the life.” Through raw testimony, humor, grace, and professionalism, we share stories of redemption that break stigma and ignite hope.
We are available to:
Share keynote messages at galas and fundraisers
Speak at women’s conferences, schools, and churches
Sit on expert panels and lead professional trainings on sex trafficking red flags and prevention
Facilitate "commitment-style" meetings in women's recovery programs, offering encouragement through lived experience
We love sharing our experience, strength, and hope—especially with women in early recovery.
Our testimonies don’t just tell a story—they open the door to healing, restoration, and freedom.

Jasmine Grace has given a great gift to so many by her testimony of being sex trafficked! Her story emphasizes that anyone, anywhere can fall prey to being trafficked—crossing all socio-economic and educational lines. Jasmine proves it truly does happen to the girl next door! She exudes passion as she describes her personal details of her painful ordeal, while explaining 'getting out of the life' isn’t as easy as some may think. Whomever hears Jasmine, undoubtedly will be powerfully impacted, all with the hope they will embrace eradication of this heinous crime as a cause they will help in and support.

Jasmine has an ability to connect with students from middle school to university, in an age appropriate way that helps demystify the myths and stereotypes, in a way that does not invoke fear, but rather empowers students with education and inspiration. Students learn how trafficking may happen, but also that there are resources. Students learn that although you may experience things in life, it is part of your story, not your identity. Everyone has a story and there is hope. We have partnered with Jasmine for trainings with Service Providers such as, Medical, EMS, Law Enforcement and social workers. She speaks and trains with authority, kindness and realness that helps service providers understand the dynamics of trafficking and exploitation. Often after her talks service providers can connect with things they have seen or responded to but may not have identified as trafficking. Jasmine empowers them with grace and hope that spurs them on to have better interactions with survivors in the future.

Jasmine possesses the rare ability to effectively communicate with a wide array of audiences. She simultaneously engages the mind and heart with her storytelling, offering practical ways to engage even a highly complex issue like human trafficking. Beyond her speaking ability, I also respect and appreciate who Jasmine is and the joyful, steady, authentic presence she brings to all that she does.
