Thank you to the many Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) partners who make our Children’s Advocacy Center possible and joined us for the 2026 MDT Cross Training. Together, professionals from across child protection, law enforcement, healthcare, prosecution, victim advocacy, and community services came together to strengthen collaboration, share knowledge, and reinforce our collective commitment to protecting children. Through ongoing cross-training and partnership, we build a stronger, more coordinated response for children and families in our community.

Human trafficking doesn't always look the way people expect. In South Florida, traffickers may exploit environments tied to tourism, nightlife, luxury lifestyles, and boating. As we enter events like Miami Swim Week, teens and young adults may be targeted with promises of modeling opportunities, exclusive events, money, status, or connections. Awareness is one of the most powerful tools we have to prevent exploitation before it occurs.

Bodycam video shared by the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office on Wednesday shows police responding to the home of a Miami Beach charter boat business owner accused of s*x trafficking teenagers.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to join the women’s group at First Church of Hollywood for a meaningful conversation on human trafficking awareness and prevention. This connection began earlier this year at the Three Sons Brewing event, where members of the church community connected with Kristi House and later invited our team to speak.

A special thank you to Angie Rigdon, Pastors Robert and Lisa Maxwell, and the entire congregation for your kindness, warm welcome, and generosity. Along with a donation that will support our upcoming Project GOLD Summer Bash kickoff event, the group also collected snacks and much-needed supplies for the youth we serve through Project GOLD.

Most child s*xual abuse is not committed by strangers. In fact, up to 93% is committed by someone the child knows and trusts.

Prevention starts with education, awareness, and honest conversations. Knowing the signs can help stop abuse before it happens.

Kristi House educates to prevent child s*xual abuse, advocates for children, supports healing, and mobilizes our community to protect kids and youth.
