SURVIVOR: Courtneys' Story

Courtney was placed in foster care at 6 months old. Her mother was incarcerated and her father was a pimp who had no use for a baby. She was permanently placed in a good home with a pastor and his wife at age 7. All was well until an older cousin began to come and spend the night. She molested her over and over again during the years she visited the family. Courtney says the abuse was so traumatic that it became part of her identity. She sat in church listening to sermons about sin and wondering if she would go to hell.
Hear her heartbreaking story of being trafficked for sex, living on the streets and finally finding freedom in this first episode of our series on survivors.
