Dear Friend,

The National Center on Sexual Exploitation (NCOSE) has taken a significant step forward in bringing a measure of justice to survivors of sex trafficking this week.

The NCOSE Law Center is now co-counsel on a case that was filed against nationwide hotel chain Wyndham Hotels and Resorts, Inc. and others for knowingly facilitating the sex trafficking of a 16-year-old girl beginning in 2014. For years, the girl was trafficked in and out of several hotels owned by Wyndham and other chains in Santa Clara County, California, while obvious signs of sex trafficking were clearly and willfully ignored by hotel employees.

We believe that corporations must not be allowed to facilitate, perpetrate, or profit from sexual exploitation of any kind. The reality this lawsuit exposes is that Wyndham Hotels and Resorts, Inc. profited off of the repeated and commercialized rape of a child

If you're interested in more information about the case, you can read a summary of it from the NCOSE Law Center here. Warning: some of the language and events described are graphic.

This type of action is possible because of the support we get from friends and allies like you. Thank you for all you do for the movement to end sexual exploitation!
