A Future. Not A Past. Community Ambassadors are community members who volunteer their time to raise awareness regarding the prostitution of children and keeping their friends and family informed. There is no time commitment so this is the perfect opportunity for full-time employees, students, and parents who want to be involved!
Become an official AFNAP Community Ambassador by attending a one-time 2 hour training session where you will be educated on the commercial sexual exploitation of children here in Georgia and the demand for those children, as well as learning the red flags to look for and services available for any child in need of help, or how to report this crime to law enforcement.
