SUMMARY:Virtual Premiere of California's Forgotten Children Documentary
DESCRIPTION:Fueled by powerful stories and a desire to foster change alongside our partners across the globe\, California’s Forgotten Children has become a movement.\nWe have reached thousands of people internationally by raising awareness about the prevalence of child sex trafficking through festivals and community screenings. We are mobilizing change within communities by partnering with local advocates and survivor leaders\, and we are inspiring education reform that advocates for bringing an end to the exploitation of children. Our expanding network includes partners on the ground that range from non-profits\, government organizations\, and survivors\, and now YOU! \nDue to COVID-19 Pandemic\, our in-person screenings have been postponed. But we have found a solution to continue our live screenings with Q&A from home. April is Child Abuse Prevention Month\, and as communities across the country are in isolation\, it is a crucial opportunity to learn about the signs of child abuse and how to prevent it. Please join us for an exclusive Virtual-At-Home Premiere Screening of the film with live Q&A discussion after with the director. \n\n\nCalifornia’s Forgotten Children is a feature documentary that follows a diverse group of resilient survivors who have overcome commercial sexual exploitation as children and are changing the world by ensuring no child is forgotten. This film has current statistics and perspectives of sexual exploitation from professionals in social services\, law enforcement\, advocates\, and child welfare. It focuses on youth wrongfully criminalized youth in the judicial system\, manipulated and coerced by family\, friends\, and caretakers; and exploited by multiple slavery industries. \nIt aims to point out not only the injustices were done to these children but also offer solutions to help spread change in society. The film highlights heroic stories from abolitionists and advocates who work night and day to protect children and to put an end to this epidemic. Sharing an empowering message of how each survivor took control of her/his life\, developing into influential leaders and champions of change. \nFrom victim to survivor to thriver– these young women and men dedicate their lives to preventing injustices from happening to others. They seek to change public perception and create a safer environment for children worldwide. This film is a call to action by giving viewers the tools and the knowledge to combat this scourge. By creating awareness\, this documentary empowers a movement to address this epidemic and support survivors on their path to freedom.
