In this episode, Brandon and Breanna Vales of Red Light Rebellion discuss the work they do to prevent sex trafficking through education, inspiration, and connection.
Brandon and Breanna's bio:
Breanna started Red Light Rebellion in 2010 during her senior year of high school after learning that her age group was the primary target for sex trafficking. Since then, she has served in aftercare programs for survivors both in the United States and Cambodia, as well as developed digital and live education programs resulting in direct prevention to sex trafficking.
After marrying Breanna in 2013, Brandon joined Red Light Rebellion to leverage his story of battling a 15+ year porn addiction and create a dynamic demand prevention program to help others break free and prevent the next generation of buyers of sexual exploitation. Together Brandon and Breanna are a dynamic force, not only providing powerful awareness information, but entertaining the 77,000+ people RLR has reached with over 2,900 high-energy, multimedia and interactive live presentations.
