Unfortunately Timea was not able to attend yesterday’s launch but sent this message in her absence.

We are truly excited and honoured that we were a part of this incredible and very special project.We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to the Women’s Trucking Federation, the Ministry of Transportation and the Ontario Government for recognizing the importance of using the voice and expertise of Survivors of Human Trafficking to create and deliver this content.Our Survivor Instructors felt honoured, and empowered to be able to jump on the front lines and offer their first hand knowledge so that others can be rescued or get the appropriate support.
Survivors are so much more than just their stories and we would like to thank the Ontario Government for recognizing that.
This project was created by Survivors and portions of the budget offered full and part time employment for 3 Survivors of Human Trafficking. 
TC Online Institute our Survivor Instructors and team would like to thank every single truck driver for taking this course and becoming the ears and eyes on the road and becoming a part of the solution. When people ask us why we need to train Truck drivers, the answer is simple from our perspective.
” If this education was around when we were being trafficked, we could have been saved or rescued much sooner. Being rescued sooner means our traumatic experiences could have been cut in half, means we would have less things to try to heal. We could have had a chance to have a nice life at 30 instead of 40 or 50 years of age. And to us it is a huge difference.”
So thank you all for making this training happen.
