As a survivor of human trafficking, I have had the privilege of witnessing firsthand the extraordinary impact that Lynda Harlos has on survivors and the broader fight against trafficking. Lynda’s unwavering commitment to advocacy and prevention is nothing short of inspiring. Her depth of knowledge, compassion, and courage in sharing her family’s story has not only educated countless people but also created real change in the way communities understand and respond to exploitation. Lynda has an incredible ability to connect with survivors in a way that makes us feel seen, believed, and supported. Through her guidance and advocacy, she helped me find strength in my own voice and reminded me that healing and empowerment are possible. Her passion for prevention and education shines through in everything she does from public speaking and training initiatives to offering genuine one-on-one support. What makes Lynda truly remarkable is her bravery in sharing her personal and family journey to raise awareness. She turns pain into purpose, creating pathways for others to find safety, understanding, and hope. Her leadership has not only transformed my life but continues to ripple outward, influencing systems, policies, and hearts. I am endlessly grateful for Lynda Harlos for her courage, compassion, and relentless dedication to making a difference. She is a true light in the fight against human trafficking and an inspiration to all who have the honor of knowing her.

“Lynda Harlos has first-hand experience of bearing witness to this crime in a way that most could never imagine. Having been made aware of her daughter’s involvement in sex trafficking, Lynda has endeavoured to ensure that parents everywhere know what to look for and how to keep their children safe from this crime. Lynda’s workshops, videos, and resources are trauma-informed, relatable, and high quality. Lynda is a phenomenal speaker who creates safe spaces for her audiences both online and in-person. She connects with her audience and encourages their participation and feedback as she is mindful that every family is different. Lynda’s warmth and genuine nature is essential and balances the heavy weight of the topic. She is committed to supporting parents, guardians, and caregivers protect their youth from trafficking. I have had the pleasure of working with Lynda on a number of webinars and each time I hear her speak, I take something valuable away with me.”

“Lynda is an incredible presenter. Her willingness to be open and honest about her story creates a safe space for others to open their minds and understand how human trafficking can touch any family.  Every time I have heard her speak, it has been heartfelt and heartwarming.”    

I had the opportunity to attend a workshop on Sex Trafficking presented by Lynda Harlos. It was an eye-opening talk!

All the things we think we know about sex trafficking vs the reality of what can really happen… The innocent luring of an unsuspecting teen was frightening.

As a parent coach, this training will help me guide parents by understanding these predatory behaviors.

Lynda, thank you for sharing your daughters journey and how you have been able to heal from this experience.

You are educating so many with all your wisdom and guidance.
Every parent needs to hear what you have to share. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Lynda makes it so easy for parents to understand the warning signs to look for if their child could possibly be a human trafficking victim.

After attending her presentation, I felt equipped and confident in taking the action steps she recommended to ensure that our kids have trusted adults they can talk to (even if it’s not us) and also what we can do as parents to keep our kids from being vulnerable to traffickers.

Every parent needs to tune in to Lynda’s presentation on Human Trafficking. So informative and some great tips along with warning signs. This information provided could save your child from a very traumatizing experience or even save a child’s life.
