Sessions include topics like Addressing Legal and Law Enforcement Biases, Being A Survivor Advocate, Accountability Through Empowerment, Attachment, Development, and Online Solicitation, Youth Homelessness and Sexual Exploitation and much more.
““This conference is an amazing experience where we see a person connect to a new thought, the heart open to vulnerable and stigmatized people, individuals find commonalities across the globe, the brain challenged to think a new way, and where great community collaborations begin,” Conference Host, Dr. Celia Wiliamson said. “We go beyond the idea of rescue and restore to have a profound understanding of emancipation and liberation.”
Thousands of people from all 50 states and 57 countries have attended over the last 21 years that the University of Toledo has hosted the conference. The conference began in 2004.
