Media

If you are a reporter or other member of the news media and would like a comment or background from Breaking Free, or would like to interview a member of staff or a survivor of sex trafficking, contact Michelle Colburn at (651)645-6557 or mcolburn@breakingfree.net.

Student requests: Each year, Breaking Free receives hundreds of student requests for assistance with school projects such as interviews with survivors or staff. Because of the high volume of requests we receive and our heavy workload, Breaking Free staff and survivors are not able to assist students with school projects. Please do not contact us with requests for class project assistance. 

Please note that survivors of sex trafficking who are interviewed by members of the media will be accompanied at all times by a Breaking Free staff member. In addition, extra measures may need to be taken to preserve the confidentiality and safety of the survivor, such as using a pseudonym or altering a survivor's voice.
