Courses Created With a True Purpose​

These books were created from more than education. They were created from lived experience.
 

Written by human trafficking survivor Sheri Lopez, each book is designed to help readers better understand grooming, exploitation, personal safety, and prevention through practical, survivor-informed education.
 

Choose the way you learn best. Read the text, listen to the audio, or easily switch between the two. Download the Audible app and listen on the go, then return to the written material whenever you want to read, review, or highlight something important.
 

These aren't just books to read. They are tools designed to start conversations, build awareness, and help people recognize what they may otherwise miss.
 

Survivor-led. Written with purpose. Created for prevention.

Don’t Go With Them

A Teen and Parent Guide to Staying Safe from Online Predators
What if the biggest danger isn’t a stranger in a dark alley, but someone in your phone?

Every day, teens are targeted online by people offering attention, friendship, love, or opportunity. Don’t Go With Them helps teens understand how grooming can begin long before exploitation occurs.

Written by human trafficking survivor Sheri Lopez, this book uses real talk, not scare tactics, to explain how predators build trust, manipulate emotions, cross boundaries, and use social media, gaming, messaging, and other online spaces to gain access.

Teens will learn warning signs to watch for, why something that feels “too good to be true” may be a concern, and what to do when an online interaction doesn’t feel right.

Includes a Parent Safety Guide with conversation starters, warning signs, and practical tools.

Because it doesn’t start with trafficking. It starts with attention.
