We're familiar with the importance of physical freedom for survivors of trafficking, but what happens when they are still trapped by invisible addiction? Join host Micah Gamboa and Elijah Rising's recovery specialists Jessica Gobble and Bri McCarthy as they explore a critical yet rarely discussed aspect of survivor care: SLAA.
