Trafficking survivors may not have had opportunities to build
work experience, so offering ways to gain this experience is
essential to their healing and thriving.
In this episode, Stacy and Leslie talk with Lauren Carpenter,
co-founder of Branded Collective, an employer of many survivors
from End Slavery Tennessee. Branded Collective not only sold
jewelry that helped fund survivors and their healing journey, but
provided jobs for survivors, to ready them for the workforce.
If you're a business owner, or looking for creative ways to help in
the rehabilitation of survivors, listen closely to this episode,
it'll give you some important takeaways for developing opportunity
for these women. Then stick around after our conversation with
Lauren to hear from previous employees of Branded Collective who
have special messages from their time there.
