Bloom for Women is hosting a free community screening of The Right Track, a powerful documentary that amplifies the voices of survivors of sex trafficking, revealing their resilience, heartbreak, and courage as they fight for freedom, justice, and a future where exploited individuals are no longer criminalized but protected.

This crime is happening right here in the Lehigh Valley, and community awareness is a critical step in prevention and response. Bloom is committed to educating the community, supporting survivors on their path to healing, and advocating for systems that protect victims and hold traffickers accountable.

Following the screening, attendees are invited to stay for a panel discussion with local professionals and advocates who work directly with survivors. The conversation will explore how trafficking impacts our region, what resources exist, and how community members can help be part of the solution.

This free event is open to the public, and all are encouraged to attend.
