Joy’s Story 

Like many survivors of sex trafficking, Joy had been arrested. When she escaped her traffickers and started a new life, her criminal record prevented her from accomplishing her goal of helping others through nursing. With ALWAYS’ help, Joy requested and received a good cause waiver allowing her to obtain fingerprint clearance and begin her new career as a nurse.
