As a social enterprise, storyteller Cafe offers income <br />that will aid anti -trafficking work, opportunities for collaboration for nonprofits, community <br />engaging and demand decreasing awareness, and opportunities for survivors through jobs <br />and job training. <br />In order to change a culture that because of lack of awareness and understanding allows for <br />issues like trafficking and exploitation to flourish we must start in spaces of community.
