Breaking Free is the inspiration of Vednita Carter, Excecutive Director. Her passion and vision is to educate and rehabilitate women and girls who have been involved in prostitution, violence and human trafficking. The average age of women who enter prostitution in the State of Minnesota is 13 years old.
Sergeant Jerry Vick, killed in the line of work with the St. Paul Police Department, was trying to eradicate prostitution as a Peace Officer in a kind and respectful way.
Violence against prostituted women and girls has gone unrecognized for many years by minimizing the harm associated with it. Prostituted individuals have been treated as ‘throw away people’ and have been left trapped in their misery without a voice. Everyone in our community is somehow impacted by this vicious cycle. Let’s stop the violence against women.

Terri Kurita was recently recognized in The Wedding and Event Videographer’s Association International Magazine (WEVA) for “Giving Back” to the community by the videos she creates to help Breaking Free publicize their cause.
