Special Guest Speaker: Katarina MacLeod of Rising Angels

Friday, March 23, 2018

They helped me to take power back when all my power was taken away. Nexus empowered me.
On Monday, March 26th the Between Us Girls group will welcome Katarina MacLeod to the Nexus Youth Centre for a presentation on commercial sexual exploitation. Katarina is the founder of Rising Angels, an organization that provides supportive services to women and girls exploited by the sex trade. Rising Angels also works to bring sex trade education to professionals and the public.

On Monday Katarina will share her personal story of exploitation, sexual and physical abuse and addiction. She will also talk about how she escaped the sex trade and important protective factors to ensure personal safety.

Girls between the ages of 14 - 24 are invited to attend this event. Food and beverages will be provided and girls can earn community service hours for attending.

For more information, please contact Melissa at the Nexus Youth Centre at 905-566-1883.
