Amanda Florczykowski
Founder/CEO
When Amanda’s daughter was taken from her arms at her local grocery store in a thwarted trafficking abduction, she came face-to-face, quite literally, with America’s child sex trade crisis. Uniquely qualified, Amanda penned best-seller, Unraveled: Mothering Fiercely in a World Full of Fears and more than 60 million people read her viral warning. As a degreed public speaker, her mission and message include her ground-breaking advocacy research providing solutions based on the correlation between strong families and a child's immunity to trafficking and “trafficking as business”.
Amanda is founder of Able Moms International, Vigilant Families, the first-ever predator-proof video resource library for parents and children, and Legacy Academy - A University-Model® School. Before staying home with her five kiddos, Amanda’s professional career included awards and high heels as the top 1% of sales and development managers for an international industry leader. Amanda loves sunsets, answered prayers, a clean house, movies that tell a good, true story, and finding money in her pocket. Her big, Italian-Polish family and German Shepherd enjoy welcoming guests into their peace-filled Colorado home.
