How do you feel the film supported your efforts and intended outcomes?

This is by far the best documentary about human trafficking that I have ever viewed. California is a neighboring state, and many of our local survivors have identified that they have been trafficked in locations depicted by the film. It was also very eye opening to attendees to see how different each situation is, but also provided hope that there is help for survivors and that there is a large network of survivors to support each other.

Following the screening, did attendees seek additional services or resources related to sex trafficking?

Yes, many people identified wanting to become more involved in our efforts.

Following the screening, do you feel people in the audience had a better understanding of sex trafficking? 

Yes! Follow-up questions that were more informed and supportive of survivors instead of blaming and shaming. There were also conversations about indicators that people have seen in the community and discussion of how they can report in the future.

What additional information or resources did attendees request?

Ways to help in our community Curriculum for Schools

ADVICE TO FUTURE HOST

What are lessons learned that would be important to know for future screenings?

This second screening was very successful! We started bringing awareness and sharing information early, which was very helpful! Dates and Times are always hard, so picking a summer evening when families do not have to worry about getting kids to bed may be beneficial.

What populations/communities would benefit from a film screening?

Everyone!

What are valuable tactics to ensuring the event is successful?

Encouraging RSVP/payment before attendance may help people commit. ​Broad range of people invited Facebook/Instagram Ads

What advice would you give to others wanting to host a screening? ​

Even if you don't get a huge audience, people who are there will learn a lot and will share what they learned. Even if you don't get 300 people, it's still a success! Engage church members/community Engage Schools

Please explain in detail why you would or would not recommend this film to be screened to others in your community or at large.

Always highly recommend! I cannot say enough how much I love this documentary and appreciate the time and effort that was put in to such a quality documentary.

If your community has undergone other types of events/trainings on sex trafficking, how would you compare the response to this screening as compared to the other types of event/trainings?

This film generates a much higher response and better feedback than other videos.
