"It's Happening Right Here" unveils the terrifying truth that child sex trafficking can happen in every community in the United States. Interviews with law enforcement officials, non-governmental organizations, technology experts and survivors help to create awareness about online grooming, sextortion, and trafficking, along with providing preventative tools for parents and children alike.
Despite the darkness of these crimes, hope can be found through the organizations fighting to end trafficking and those sharing their experiences to protect others.

"Thanks to their interviews, we are able to inform about the dangers of online grooming, trafficking and more, while sharing preventative tools and ultimately a message of hope. We are excited to get this film out to the world."
