Episode 4: Slaying in Anti-Trafficking Practice and Research: Pop-Up Services for Victims and Prostituted Women with Dominique Roe-Sepowitz, PhD
b'
Dr. Dominique Roe-Sepowitiz, Director of the Office of Sex Trafficking at Arizona State University, discusses the ways she is and has been involved in anti-trafficking work with victims and prostituted women in jails, in groups, in a drop-in center, and in the community. One of her current projects is working with many others to bring "pop up" services to prostituted and trafficked women in Phoenix. Every six months collaborators, made up of various social service agency representatives along with university students and survivors volunteer to set up in an area in the community to offer housing services, substance abuse services, counseling, basic needs and other services and supports to vulnerable others. They don't wait for someone to find them. They bring the application process and help to the people that need it most. The projects is now occuring in a few other cities across the U.S. and has been very successful.\\xa0 Dr. Roe-Sepowitz welcomes anti-trafficking advocates from other communities to learn how to implement the project in their cities.\\xa0
