| Kelli 's Experience: Kelli Cary has been advocating for victims of human trafficking for over a decade. She has spent the last 10 years leading anti-trafficking efforts in Ohio and believes that collaboration at the local, state, and national level is how we will effectively combat human trafficking. Kelli holds her graduate degree in Social Work from Case Western Reserve University and has her LISW-S. Most recently, Kelli held the position of Vice President of Programming at RAHAB Ministries, where she supervised staff and programs providing direct services to adult and minor survivors of sex trafficking. Additionally, Kelli co-chaired the Victim Services Subcommittee for the Ohio Attorney General's Human Trafficking Commission where she led efforts to prioritize service standards across the state. Kelli comes to ATN with experience developing trauma-informed programs that prioritize survivor voices to ensure services are truly restorative. As a collaborator, she is excited to be part of the anti-trafficking community in Tennessee and believes we are stronger advocates when we use our collective voice for systemic change. |
