Our TeamMISSSEY is Black femme and survivor led. Our lived experience gives us the perspective and presence to achieve healing and freedom for ourselves while making the world safer for Black girls and nonbinary youth of color. We know what the young people we serve are going through because many of us have gone through it too. This work is personal for us and we are passionate and focused on healing ourselves and each other. We are devoted guides, always there to listen, comfort and lift up the young people we serve, and capable partners to the ecosystem of organizations and professionals we work with. Our dedication to ending sexual exploitation and the systemic conditions that uphold it – racism, sexism and capitalism – fuels our tireless commitment to serve and center young people.Our TeamMISSSEY is Black femme and survivor led.
