Hour 3: Rachel Lloyd
Joining the show during the final hour is Rachel Lloyd, to discuss her book, Girls Like Us: A Memoir and GEMS (Girls Educational and Mentoring Services), the only non-profit organization in New York State specifically designed to serve girls and young women who have experienced commercial sexual exploitation and domestic trafficking. Rachel founded GEMS in 1998.
In the United States alone, an estimated 200,000 to 300,000 adolescents 
are at risk for commercial sexual exploitation each year. In her book, Girls Like Us, which is a partly a memoir of her own life “on the streets,” Rachel tells the whole eye-opening story of vulnerability, recruitment, and brain-washing by those who prey on America’s youth for commercial gain. Her story is a call-to-action and is a strong voice for those in need of protection–the thousands of girls all around us who work and suffer in near invisibility. Trafficking of children is not merely a Third World problem.
GEMS has partnered with MTV’s “Against Our Will Campaign” PSAs, including the incredibly powerful one on “Johns.” Today’s youth are tomorrow’s social workers, nurses, lawyers, teachers, doctors, and police officers–all of whom may come into contact with victims of trafficking. Changing their mindset now about who the victims are and what they deserve will make for a changed world for girls caught in a life of abuse as a victim of commercial sexual exploitation.
Rachel Lloyd is the Founder and Executive Director of GEMS. She earned her BA in Psychology from Marymount Manhattan College, and an MBA in Applied Urban Anthropology from the City College of New York. She has received numerous awards, including the prestigious Reebok Human Rights Award. Lloyd is an Ashoka Fellow and a Prime Mover Fellow, and was a leading advocate for the Safe Harbor for Exploited Youth Act, which makes New York the first state to protect, not prosecute, sexually exploited children. Her leading advocacy is also the subject of the critically acclaimed Showtime documentary, “Very Young Girls.” Rachel lives in New York City.
