Searching for Truth: Healing from Child Sexual Exploitation

Oct 19, 2022, 1 PM
Virtual
Free and open to the public

A decade ago, WCW Visiting Scholar Kate Price, Ph.D., and Boston Globe Journalist Janelle Nanos, M.A., began a journey together to investigate Price’s history as a child sex trafficking survivor. The culmination of their partnership, a multi-media article in the Boston Globe Magazine, was published in July 2022. During this program, Nanos and Price will discuss their project and how they unearthed pieces of Price’s history. Price and WCW Senior Research Scientist Linda Williams, Ph.D., will also share their research and expertise on child sexual abuse cases, how Price’s personal experience connects to broader research findings, and how society can better support healing and justice for survivors of child sexual abuse and exploitation.
