#899 - The Dark World of Sex Trafficking: Tyler Schwab
In this podcast episode, Tyler shares his very raw and sobering experience as a front line worker with Operation Undergound Railroad in the fight against sex trafficking. The stories he shares reveal the depth of human depravity and also testify to the redeeming power of Christ. Tyler’s work also plunges into the mysteries of the problem of evil. If God really is good, then how IN. THE. WORLD. Can things like this be happening? Needless to say, Tyler has wrestled with his faith in very real ways.
Growing up in Star Valley, Wyoming, Tyler has spent the last decade working on behalf of survivors of human trafficking. He is an expert in quality aftercare services and has testified in the highest offices in Guatemala, Dominican Republic, and Uruguay. Schwab has been featured on numerous media outlets such as ABC4 News Good for Utah, Wyoming Signatures, Star Valley Independent, Wyo4News, Casper Star Tribune, Huntsmen Business from Utah State University, The Utah Special Victims Unit Conference, The Utah Survivors Podcast, Our Deepest Fear Podcast, and El Tribuno Salta Argentina. In 2013, Tyler founded Libertas International, a nonprofit dedicated to the prevention and restoration of survivors of human trafficking in Latin America. Tyler is fluent in Spanish. Tyler graduated with degrees in Spanish and Healthcare Administration. He was voted student entrepreneur of the year in 2016 at University of Wyoming for his work in the For Purpose Field. He also earned the Anti Human Trafficking Certificate from Vanguard University’s School for Women and Justice in late 2020.
