StolenYouth, in partnership with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Discovery Center, presents a panel discussion that explores racial, gender and economic inequalities in child sex trafficking.

Panelists include:
Yasmin Vafa, Executive Director, Rights4Girls
Peter Qualliotine, Co-Founder & Director of Men's Accountability, Organization for Prostitution Survivors
Shaquita Bell, MD, FAAP, Clinical Associate Professor, Seattle Children's Hospital
