About Our Presenters

Deena Graves, PhD, founded Traffick911, a Dallas-based anti-trafficking nonprofit that has received national recognition for her copyrighted Traps of a Trafficker© youth prevention-and-identification program. The Traps also has handed child sex traffickers multiple felony arrests and convictions, including an unprecedented four life sentences for one pimp. Deena is an international award-winning communicator who uses that expertise to give a voice to children whose voice and hope have been stripped away by those preying upon them for their own pleasure and profit.

Denise Williams is an M3 Transformations Trainer, Consultant, Survivor, and Advocate.
"My heart’s desire is to help people understand the perfect storm early childhood trauma creates for a trafficker. I also unravel the path from victim to victimizer through trainings and consultations. Dr. Deena Graves and I are writing a book weaving my story of evolving from
victim to victimizer with tools to take the power from trauma and traffickers and put it back in the hands of our vulnerable children."
