Our Team

Breaking Free is committed to diversity and to the empowerment of survivors. Our staff comes from a variety of backgrounds and areas of expertise, and many are themselves survivors.  


The staff diversity at Breaking Free intentionally provides additional support to serve women of color who are disproportionately represented in the demographics of sex trafficking, prostitution, and sexual exploitation.
