The Church Must Lead in Stopping Child Trafficking: Lynne Barletta on Overcomers TV
Lynne Barletta, founder of Florida Faith Alliance, recently joined Pastor Chuck Reich of Overcomers TV and co-host Valerie Hill from Real Options to discuss why the church must take the lead in stopping child trafficking.
In this powerful interview, Lynne shares how trafficking is impacting children in Florida and across the nation, often hiding in plain sight in schools, neighborhoods, and even online gaming and chat apps. She explains how churches are uniquely positioned to protect children, educate families, and collaborate with local schools and civic leaders to prevent exploitation before it happens.
“Traffickers thrive in silence,” Lynne says, “but when the church steps in with education and action, we can change the outcomes for these children.”
Valerie Hill, who has seen firsthand the devastating impact of trafficking in her work with Real Options, agrees that communities need to be trained to recognize signs of grooming and exploitation. The conversation also highlights real stories of prevention and the hope that comes when faith communities rise to protect the vulnerable.
Watch this insightful interview to learn practical ways your church can get involved and be a voice for children who cannot speak for themselves.
