Hi, Crime Family, thanks for being here this week for this Just One B episode, with solo Beth telling the rough story of the murder of Cammi Leigh Ostwald, who was a 16-year-old Michigander from Clinton Township, which is a suburb of Detroit. She was a pretty typical teenager, but after a fight with her mom about an older boy, Cammi ran away. Cammi's family were frantic to find her and bring her home, but the 19-year-old her 'friend' asked to look after her took that possibility off the table. Her murder was horrific and cruel, and seems likely to have taken place because of a childish fantasy the perpetrator had held in his mind for years. Please hear Cammi's story, and keep in your hearts all the distraught families of runaways. Her family loved her. Her family wanted her home. She really didn't grasp how much she was loved, even though they showed it with the care they tried to give her. This loss was tragic and brutal and devastating. Rest in peace, Cammi. Thank you for listening to this young woman's story, and if you find yourself in a position to help a vulnerable runaway or their family, I hope you'll try to help. If you're a runaway, have a friend who has run away, or want to find ways to help, please visit the National Runaway Safeline. https://www.1800runaway.org/ or call them at 1-800-runaway .I'll be back in a couple of weeks with a collaboration with one of my favorite humans on the planet!

THE RUNAWAYS: AMERICA IN CRISIS This month, as we observed National Runaway Prevention Month, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), and the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC), one of our long-standing partners in addressing runaway youth, put a spotlight on the invisible faces of youth who are homeless. On a single night in 2018, 4,093 children under the age of 18 were counted as homeless because they were not part of a family with children or not under the care of a parent or guardian, according to the Annual Homeless Assessment Report from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The National Runaway Safeline reports that between 1.6 million and 2.8 million youth run away each year. In 2020, of the 27,000 missing child cases reported to the Center, 91% were for endangered runaways. NCMEC provides support services to families and victims and raises awareness to help bring these youth home. Last year the Center launched the “Runaway Train” campaign, which reimagined the music video from 25 years earlier that featured missing children and helped close 21 cases. The dynamic new video updates images of missing children based on a viewer's location. Runaway and homeless youth are more likely to engage in substance use and delinquent behavior, become teenage parents, drop out of school, suffer from sexually transmitted diseases, meet the criteria for mental illness, and have an increased risk of being sexual exploited and trafficked. The risk for homelessness is also increased for youth living in the foster care system. In fact, youth who experience multiple placements in foster care, have a history of running away from them, and who have spent time in a group home are most at risk of homelessness. Those aged 15 when they first enter foster care have the highest risk of running away. Homeless youth also have a high rate of involvement in the juvenile justice system.

Domestic Violence & Child Custody - VAWA Kayden's Law: How We Created It and What States Can Do Now To Protect Children   Episode Type: Professional  Host: Danielle Pollack Links for Danielle Pollack Danielle Pollack Personal Website: https://www.daniellepollack.com/ Personal Twitter: https://twitter.com/danielle2u National Family Violence Law Center at GW Law NFVLC Website: https://www.law.gwu.edu/national-family-violence-law-center NFVLC Twitter: https://twitter.com/nfvlcgwu NFVLC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nfvlc_at_gwu/ National Safe Parents Organization NSPO Website: https://www.nationalsafeparents.org/ NSPO Twitter: https://twitter.com/safe_parents NSPO Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nationalsafeparents/ Description:  Growing out of Pennsylvania after several years of intense strategic policy work and analysis by Danielle Pollack and a group of legal experts she brought together in 2017-18 - including Professor Joan Meier, litigators Richard Ducote and Jodi Lewis, and others - the federal Kayden's Law was signed into law by the President as part of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) in 2022. In Congress, the effort was led by Pollack's Pennsylvania Congressman Fitzpatrick and it built upon the state-level work on Kayden's Law, led by Pennsylvania State Senators Santarsiero and Baker, in consultation with Pollack's team. In the U.S., child custody is a state matter, meaning custody laws are determined by the states and differ somewhat from state to state. There are a few things, though, one can do on a federal level to help uniformly improve and reform family courts' response to family violence and child safety risks in custody decision-making nationwide. The intent of VAWA Kayden's Law is exactly this, and it does so by incentivizing states with federal grant money to adopt the provisions in the new federal law, thereby making the needed protective improvements in state custody laws. All states which adopt the provisions will become eligible for the funds, and the National Family Violence Law Center at GW Law, where Pollack is Policy Manager, is providing state lawmakers and stakeholders with technical assistance. Research shows that family courts are too frequently making child custody decisions which ignore or minimize family violence and safety risks to children. As a result, vulnerable children are being preventably court-ordered to be in the care and custody of an abusive party. These children are subsequently often maltreated for prolonged periods and/or sometimes murdered by an abusive parent - as Kayden Mancuso was in Pennsylvania - when there was a safe parent available and seeking to protect the child from harm. This is a systemic state, national, and international problem in private custody courts. Increasingly organized grassroots coalitions of advocates, protective parents, domestic violence survivors, and some family court practitioners have been calling for more protective reforms for children in family courts for many years. Recently, some celebrities, including actor and UN Ambassador, Angelina Jolie, have spoken out on behalf of the protective reforms Pollack and her team have developed and advanced, including VAWA Kayden's Law. The press is increasingly covering these family court issues, with recent in-depth investigative reporting from ProPublica, NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt, The Texas Observer, the Philadelphia Inquirer, the Denver Post, and others. The national organization which brings the country's leading advocacy groups together under one umbrella is the National Safe Parents Organization.   People Waiting to Help in the United States: • Emergency: 911 • National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255 • National Domestic Violence Hotline: Phone 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) Text “START” to 88788 • National Child Abuse Hotline: 1-800-422-4453 • Safe Helpline, Sexual Assault: 1-877-995-5247 • LGBTQ National Hotline: 1-888-843-4564 • National Runaway Safeline: 1-800-786-2929 • SAMHSA Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services: 1-800-662- HELP (4357) • Crisis Text Line: Text 741741 • National Eating Disorder Association Helpline: 1-800-931-2237 • Veterans Crisis Line: Phone 1-800-273-8255 Text 838255 For more resources please visit The Trauma and Mental Health Report resource page https://trauma.blog.yorku.ca/resources/     If you would like to share your story/professional experience in an episode please email us at: LauraDVRC@menaspeacemakers.org

Many children who go missing are runaways. According to recent statistics by the National Runaway Safeline, one in seven children between the ages of 10 and 18 will run away at some point. Because of this, police departments will classify many missing children as runaways even when there is no history or evidence of this. Unfortunately, there are many cases where a missing child is wrongly classified as running away. But instead something more nefarious happened.

Imagine, you are a parent of a sixth-grade girl attending a private school. As adolescence hits, your familial fights seem to escalate. Your little girl is growing up way too fast, and it is hard to keep up in her world. She tends to spend more time in her room and seems to be increasing her distance from you. You see it as a phase and go with a “this too shall pass” attitude. Your last fight was about the overage in her screen time, she seems to be on her phone an awful lot. She marches to her room and slams the door; this is becoming the norm in your house. The next morning you find her room empty, window open, she’s gone. Gone. You call the police, and the search for your daughter begins. Stats show that 1.6-2.8 million kids run-away from home each year according to National Runaway Safeline, especially during the turbulent adolescent years. These run-aways come from all racial, social, and economic backgrounds. The commonality that these runaways have is that there is tension and unhappiness in their life, and they run away, thinking that whatever is outside the home is the solution to their problems. Most kids are approached with a “solution” within 24-48 hours of running away. And that solution is the beginning to sex trafficking.  Sex trafficking is a very real deal, and is happening all over the world, and I promise you, even in your community wherever you may live. Personally, we live in what is considered paradise, the Big Island of Hawaii, yet it’s happening here every day. I (Kelsey) became aware of this horrific issue through the educational efforts of Hoolanapua. (I’m sure many of you, like me, are stuck at the pronunciation of this extremely long Hawaiian word, so here’s the breakdown *ho-oh-la-nuh-pooh-ah*). This incredible organization is leading the way in educational efforts to combat the issues of trafficking in Hawaii. They also are helping victims thru mentorships and are currently in the process of building a 30-bedroom all-inclusive therapeutic facility that will house minors who have come out of the emotionally abusive and traumatic experience of being victims of trafficking.   What does sex trafficking look like? Well it is forcing, co-ercing, and/ or frauding an individual, boy or girl under the age of 18, to perform sexual acts for money, housing, food, safety of friend and family and/or basic necessities. I (Kelsey) first heard about sex trafficking in when I was a youth pastor in Hilo. Since I was working with kids there, we were kept apprised on what was happening locally. Girls who were attending public schools were being wooed by boys their same age attending the same school, who were actually staged pimps (the person who arranges the sale and exploitation of the girl). These boys would become these girls’ boyfriends and promise them the world. After a few months, the boy would request the girl to perform a sex act for a “friend” as a “loving” and committed gesture, in which he would use the money to further “take care of her”. These “boyfriends” would also encourage the girl to use drugs, and once addicted, the girl would need to fund the now drug addiction by performing sex acts or the action of sex itself. Now, after living in Hawaii for ten years, I’ve heard of parents pimping out their kids to pay for a drug and/or alcohol addiction. One sick story really stuck with me: A man sold a two-year-old family member for an hour of abuse to help pay his bills! Horrible, horrible atrocities are occurring all over the world and your neighborhood, and we must collectively rise up and take action to stop it.   Jessica Munoz, founder of Hoolanpua is doing just that. Listen in to The Talking Story Podcast (Episode 3), where she shares her humble beginnings, the organization’s current endeavors and her (reachable) goals for the future. If you want to know more about sex trafficking, have a passion to do something about it, and maybe have a dream to start an organization or build a product to help combat the issue, this is the podcast for you. And if you’re thinking this is an awful subject to do a podcast about, you’re right. But you’ll quickly see the hope as Jessica shares practical tools of what we can individually do to help be a part of the solution, not the problem.              Be sure to check out www.hoolanapua.org to learn more about Pearl Haven, the 30 bedroom all-inclusive therapeutic facility on the North Shore of Oahu.    To learn more about what sex trafficking is visit: https://www.forthepeople.com/sex-trafficking-lawyers/?ads_cmpid=272467012&ads_adid=1225955614063313&ads_matchtype=e&ads_network=o&ads_creative=76622299340585&utm_term=sex%20trafficking&ads_targetid={kwd-76622345153704:loc-190}&user_device=c&msclkid=71bae1b051151898fdfabc0fcceb250a&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=SN%20-%20National%20-%20All%20Devices%20-%20Individual%20Case%20-%20Sex%20Trafficking%20Informational%20%5B%5D&utm_content=sex%20trafficking Are you concerned that you know someone who may be a victim of sex trafficking- mind you- they don’t have to be run-a-ways.

Today on the podcast we talk about the the youth and adolescents who have run away. Why kids runaway. What parents can do. How kids can get help. And the incredible job that the National Runaway Safeline is doing to help. Maureen Blaha is the executive director of the National Runaway Safeline (NRS), the federally-designated national communication system for runaway and homeless youth. Under her leadership, the visibility of NRS and awareness of its 1-800-RUNAWAY hotline has grown, while support has steadily increased in both personnel and finances. Maureen has instituted several key accomplishments during tenure including: a program focused on runaway prevention called Let’s Talk: Runaway Prevention Curriculum, as well as National Runaway Prevention Month, an annual campaign to increase awareness of the issues facing runaway youth and to educate youth, families and the public about resources available to prevent youth from running away.  Maureen has been a featured speaker of the Special Victims Assistance Unit for the FBI (2005 and 2010), was invited to speak to UK parliament to help launch The Children's Society of England's National Safe and Sound Campaign (2005), and represented the runaway population at the groundbreaking White House Conference on Missing, Exploited and Runaway Children (2002).Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-trauma-therapist-podcast-with-guy-macpherson-phd-inspiring-interviews-with-thought-leaders-in-the-field-of-trauma/donationsWant to advertise on this podcast?
