“In a communications crisis, the true prophets are the translators.”
The words of cultural critic Ellen Willis have a special meaning for our team at The Voices and Faces Project. That's because "translating" what we know about human trafficking and sexual exploitation into a series of messages that move the general public is what our newest educational workshop, "Marketing a Movement," is all about.
A case study focused on our award-winning "Ugly Truth" anti-trafficking campaign -- which was recognized by the European Union as one of the most groundbreaking gender-justice campaigns running worldwide and has been nominated for a Chicago Innovation Award -- "Marketing a Movement" was created with the support of NoVo Foundation, and in partnership with our trusted allies at Brew Advisors.

The Voices and Faces Project has been awarded a 2016 Peace Grant from Emerson Collective. Thanks to their support, we'll be bringing a youth-focused edition of "The Stories We Tell" to Chicago area girls seeking to write and speak out about their lives, beliefs, and visions for their communities. According to Arne Duncan, former U.S. Secretary of Education and managing partner at Emerson Collective, "The Peace Grants are designed to help youth play a firsthand role in making a difference in their communities and encouraging innovation and leadership."
