In November 1998, U.S. Representative Linda Smith founded Shared Hope International to fight sex trafficking and commercial sexual exploitation and to serve the long-term restoration needs of women and children in crisis. Today, as a 20-year veteran and leader in the movement, Shared Hope strives to prevent the conditions that foster sex trafficking, restore victims of sex slavery, and bring justice to vulnerable women, girls and boys. Linda is the primary author of From Congress to the Brothel, Renting Lacy, the upcoming Invading the Darkness: Inside the Historic Fight against Child Sex Trafficking in the United States, and co-authored The National Report on Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking and the DEMAND Report. Linda served as a Washington State legislator from 1983 to 1993 before she was elected to the U.S. Congress in 1994 as a result of a write-in campaign. Her compassionate and uncompromising belief that every individual has dignity has carried her from the halls of Congress to searching out victims in the United States and around the world. Linda resides in Vancouver, WA, and is a proud parent and grandparent with her dearly late husband, Vern Smith. You can learn more about the issue of child sex trafficking at sharedhope.org.
