Learn more and discover your role in creating change and bringing healing to those being trafficked.

Kristi Kirschmann
Kristi Kirschmann is the Executive Director of Our Daughters International, a ministry that works with various partner organizations that rescue, restore and support trafficked women and girls.

Leaving her career in marketing, Kristi followed God’s lead and has been serving in the anti-trafficking field for the past several years.
