Kimberly's Most Requested Topics
When Poverty Is Your Pimp:
Misunderstandings About Sex Trafficking
Keynote or General Session - (virtual available)
What if everything your audience thinks about sex trafficking was based on untrue presumptions, like the existence of a pimp? From child sex trafficking to street prostitution and high-end escorting, Kimberly walks your audience through the intersectionality of trafficking with poverty, homelessness, racism, domestic violence, trauma, and more. Kimberly’s presentation on the realities she and others have experienced will empower your community leaders to radically shift their misguided understanding of sex trafficking so they can leave your event and immediately make an impact in their communities.
Participants will experience an interactive activity with multiple options and outcomes that simulate the real-life experiences of those most victimized through commercial sexual exploitation in society. Participants leave with a new understanding of the mindset of trafficking victims and the “choices” they make to survive.
Many people equate sex trafficking in North America to the movie “Taken.” However, according to Las Vegas Metropolitan Police, in the last five years there have been fewer than 5 recorded kidnapping attempts related to sex trafficking in the United States. Yet, hundreds of thousands of women and children are commercially sexually exploited across the country each year. The reality is many victims, like Kimberly, are “taken” but home for dinner each night with their friends and families. In this presentation, Kimberly uses real case studies from those she has worked with over the years to empower audiences with a true in-depth understanding of sex trafficking and its victims in America.

Preventing Commercial
Sexual Exploitation in College
General Session, Keynote, or Breakout Session - (virtual available)
Society has casually waved off sexually exploited college students as “paying their way through college” for generations, without regard for the lifelong trauma most face in the aftermath, or the statistics showing the most likely to be exploited come from already marginalized populations. Kimberly uses case studies to highlight the hidden harms of the sex trade and empower students vulnerable to exploitation. Additionally, she will discuss how students can create supportive environments on campus to aid in the prevention and intervention of the victimization of their peers.
Working in the #METOO World
Keynote, Breakout, or Pre/Post Seminar - (virtual available)
“If you’ve been sexually harassed or assaulted, write ‘me too’ as a reply to this tweet,” wrote actress Alyssa Milano in 2017. What followed was a shocking and history-altering response of women and men from around the world sharing their stories and showcasing the global prevalence of sexual violence. Particularly astonishing was the number of people who began coming public with stories of horrendous abuse perpetrated by their boss, coworkers, or those in authority. With the magnitude of the problem clear, and societies demand for change uncompromising, communities everywhere are being forced to challenge their own policies and workplace cultures. Your audience will leave with a better understanding of the history of #MeToo and empowered to make social change in their communities and workplaces.
The Importance of Self-Care
When Working with Victims
Interactive Workshop - (virtual available)
This workshop incorporates discussion on how the experiences advocates and first responders face while working with victims of crime, as well as current world events, can cause primary and secondary trauma.

Pre-made activity kits will be provided. The price per workshop varies on the choice of activity and the number of kits needed.
If necessary, an organization may choose the option to self-supply the self-care activity. The availability of some kits may change based on global or local sourcing conditions. Contact us for more information on our current options available for your event.
