The International Organization for Adolescents (IOFA), a Freedom Network member organization, partnered with the New York Office of Child and Family Services (OCFS) in December 2014 to bring a creative presentation to the TEDxAlbany audience. This TED talk was independently organized and hosted at the Overit Creative Agency, and IOFA Project Director Madeline Hannan was proud to share her experiences of working in a group home in New York City and how it inspired her to become involved in the fight against child trafficking. The partnership between IOFA and OCFS encourages a long-term strategy to guide welfare professionals in establishing effective statewide action against child trafficking through the ChildRight New York program.
