Conversations That Make a Difference with Teresa Velardi: Voices Against Trafficking

Voices Against Trafficking

SHOW TITLE:  Voices Against Trafficking

GUEST NAME: Andi Buerger, JD

GUEST WEBSITE: www.voicesagainsttrafficking.com

SYNOPSIS: Voices Against Trafficking(VAT) speaks for the voiceless victims of human trafficking (21st Century Slavery), sexual exploitation, and other crimes against humanity.  

As a network of networkers, VAT works to create an expansive tool belt from which the everyday person up to the highest government officials can draw resources for public awareness, prevention training and education, community resources, and ways to protect one's own family and community.   We publish books, magazines, and billboard ads; produce online HT awareness forums available worldwide, child abuse prevention video promos that air every April (Child Abuse Prevention Month), and a television program to be aired in 2025 called Voices Of Courage to highlight everyday heroes fighting the fight; and we offer high-level speakers virtually and in person to any community or organization with or without a budget depending on the situation. We also provide a prevention curriculum from the Paratus Group where users spend just 4 minutes a day for 90 days to create situational awareness in their own home, business, house of worship, or governmental agency.    

BIO: Andi Buerger, JD is an international speaker, author, and advocate for victims of human trafficking & exploitation. Andi herself was a victim of child sex trafficking and unspeakable abuses by family members for 17 years.

She founded Beulah’s Place, which provided temporary shelter services to at-risk unsheltered teens for 14 years. 300+ youth were successfully rescued and assisted earning national recognition.

Andi later founded Voices Against Trafficking(VAT) to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves — the voiceless victims of human trafficking and exploitation.  VAT advocates for the protection of every human’s rights regardless of race, gender, culture, or socio-economic status.  Voices Against Trafficking-The Strength of Many Voices Speaking As One, gives a portion of proceeds from each sale to survivors of child abuse and trafficking, as does Andi’s first book,  A Fragile Thread of Hope - One Survivor’s Quest to Rescue. Andi launched Voices Of Courage magazine in 2023.  It is distributed internationally and accepted into the U.S. Library of Congress. It honors everyday heroes who selflessly fight to protect human rights. These champions come from all walks of life to change communities and the world for the better. A television series by the same title debuts in 2025.
