The fight against human trafficking continues in Fort Worth with the 5 Stones Taskforce's latest educational effort. On September 30, Ty Bowden will lead a webinar, sharing his insights into dismantling the networks that perpetuate sex trafficking. Bowden, an associate director at The Net and a leader in Texas’s demand disruption movement, brings his experience in engaging men to combat sexual exploitation to the virtual stage.
The event is scheduled for 11 a.m. on the upcoming Tuesday and comes at no cost to virtual attendees. As part of 5 Stones' community network, this webinar aims to empower local and not-so-local individuals with knowledge to aid in their collective mission to eradicate sex trafficking in the county. Interested participants must register in advance to receive information on joining the online session, a city news release reported.
According to a news release from the City of Fort Worth, Ty Bowden first connected with The Net during his time as a political science student at TCU. He has since ascended to a role where he oversees the organization's MASE (Men Against Sexual Exploitation) Program. Bowden’s work has made a significant impact statewide, having trained hundreds of men in strategies to confront and interrupt the actions of potential sex buyers and interacted with thousands of buyers on a personal level.
This webinar represents an opportunity for the public to learn from an individual deeply entrenched in the battle against sex trafficking. While the issue of human trafficking continues to plague communities across the country, forums such as these provide a vital space for education and dialogue. With Bowden at the helm, attendees can expect a candid and informative session on the current state of sex trafficking and effective methods to thwart it. For those wanting to attend, secure a spot by registering online, and mark the calendar for an eye-opening presentation courtesy of the local efforts in Fort Worth.
