Stop the Prostitution of Georgia’s Children.
Through coercion, abuse and imprisonment, more than 250 adolescent girls are sexually exploited in Georgia each month on the streets, through escort services and online.
The prostitution of Georgia’s children knows no racial, economic or geographic boundaries. It's hard to imagine that on a busy night as many as 129 girls are exploited across our state, but the time for cloaking the truth is past ... Our children demand our attention.
Spearheaded by the Juvenile Justice Fund, A Future. Not A Past. is a statewide campaign to stop the prostitution of girls in Georgia by building a barrier between children and those who seek to harm them through commercial sexual exploitation. The campaign is tirelessly addressing the issue through a four-tiered strategy of research, prevention, intervention and education.
It is the mission of A Future. Not A Past. to protect and inspire hope in these girls, the true victims of this illicit practice ... as well as to disable demand and prosecute the pimps and johns who make the prostitution of children a gruesome reality in Georgia.
