Program Transcript

FEMALE SPEAKER: Sandy, listen. I wanted to follow up with you about
something. Our client, Tiffany Bradley–

SANDY: Uh-huh.

FEMALE SPEAKER: Well, we’d like to use her photo in some of the materials
that we’re putting together for our Teen First program, promoting who we are and
the services we offer. She’d be great, don’t you think?

[MUSIC PLAYING]

SANDY: She’s trying to get on with her life. Having her picture used that way,
she’d be like the poster child for human trafficking. We’d be making her a victim
all over again.

FEMALE SPEAKER: That’s a little over the top. Why don’t you ask her and get
her opinion? Come on, don’t you think she should make up her own mind? It
might make her feel empowered– show what a real survivor she is.

SANDY: It feels too soon. I mean, she’s one phone call away from going back to
her pimp.

FEMALE SPEAKER: [SIGHS] Sandy, you cannot hold her hand forever. She
should at least be given the chance to make up her own mind.

SANDY: I really don’t want to do this. Besides, can you imagine what would
happen if you put her on all your posters and she actually does go back to her
old life on the streets? Teens First would look ridiculous.
