Working to Stop the Prostitution of Children in Georgia
Since 2007, the Juvenile Justice Fund’s A Future. Not A Past. campaign has been working to stop the prostitution of children in Georgia through groundbreaking research that drives strategies of prevention, intervention, and education. Every year, more than 28,000 men in Georgia knowingly or unknowingly have sex with prostituted adolescent girls. Unless we work together, that number will only continue to grow.
It is the mission of A Future. Not A Past. to protect and inspire hope in our girls, the true victims of this illicit practice…as well as to disable demand and prosecute to the fullest extent the pimps and johns who exploit them.
