About
In a world where darkness can seem impenetrable, A Survivor's Secrets emerges as a testament to the indomitable power of the human spirit and the transformative nature of God's love.
Just as she emerged from years of childhood physical and sexual abuse, Gina Cavallo found herself ensnared for nearly three years in the clutches of human traffickers, enduring the unspeakable horrors of prostitution. After a harrowing escape, Gina spent the next three decades shackled by fear, shame, and a crushing sense of worthlessness as she concealed her painful past―even from her husband. Her tale is ultimately one of resilience, courage, and eventual liberation. Today, Gina is a prominent speaker, advocate, and mentor for survivors of human trafficking. A Survivor's Secrets will …
• increase your understanding of the human trafficking crisis,
• strengthen your resolve for change,
• provide insight into the mechanisms used to lure people, and
• inspire you to advocate for those trapped in bondage. You will discover God's astounding power to free anyone of the grip of fear, shame, and worthlessness that holds so many captive. Witnessing Gina's pathway to recovery becomes a guided tour to inviting God's brilliant light to penetrate even the darkest memories and traumas that we or our loved ones have been enduring.
Since starting work in the anti-trafficking and prevention education field, Gina has become an important voice in state and national policy making. She has testified before the House on Foreign Affairs subcommittee on the implementation of the TVPA (Trafficking Victims Protection Act) and was selected to serve on the nationally renowned PACT (formerly ECPAT-USA) Advisory Council. Working with the NJ Department of Education, Gina helped in the development of Guidelines for Schools on Human Trafficking and frequently speaks to students on the prevention of Human Trafficking.
As a lived experience expert, Gina engages with legislators and testifies in the State House, advocating for change in laws and addressing sex trafficking and exploitation. She has delivered keynote speeches and training sessions to law enforcement, health care providers, educators, and community groups throughout the United States. Gina's organization, We RISE USA, provides resources and emergency assistance to survivors. Gina received the National Liberators Award for Survivor Leader in 2020, served with Shared Hope International, and is a member of the Survivors Leaders Institute and Survivor Alliance.
