Called to Serve

Standing with Survivors and Protecting Children Still at Risk

Child trafficking is not confined to distant places or unfamiliar faces-it's happening everywhere, often hidden in plain sight. Behind every statistic is a child: a future stolen and a voice waiting to be heard.

In Called to Serve: Standing with Survivors and Protecting Children Still at Risk, Susan Ernst shares her experience volunteering at a rescue facility for trafficked and vulnerable children. Through vivid storytelling and heartfelt reflection, she offers an unflinching look at the realities of exploitation-and the extraordinary resilience of those who survive it.

This book is both a testimony and a call to action. It invites readers to open their eyes, listen deeply, and recognize that real change begins when ordinary people care enough to show up.
