Very Young Girls film screening

In honor of Women's History Month, the NYC Women's Task Force (YWTF) would like to invite you to a film screening of Very Young Girls, an expose of the commercial sexual exploitation of girls in New York City as they are sold on the streets by pimps and treated as adult criminals by police. The film identifies hope for these girls in the organization GEMS (Girls Educational and Mentoring Services), a recovery agency founded and run by Rachel Lloyd, herself a survivor of sexual exploitation.
