Voices of East Texas is hosting a community forum on prostitution in East Texas and inviting the public to attend.

The organizers hope the event will bring to light why sexual commerce is occurring in the region and what can be done for the women, men and children caught in the phenomena.

Guest speakers for the event include law enforcement officials from Nacogdoches and Longview who will present information about prostitution in the area. Representative from the Dallas Sheriff’s Office will talk about prostitution operations at truck stops along Interstate-20 and their Innovation Prostitution Diversion Initiative.
