Speaker Bio
Brent Woody is the executive director and lead attorney for the Justice Restoration Center. Upon learning that legal services would be an emerging critical need in survivors’ restorative journeys, Brent started the Justice Restoration Center, a nonprofit dedicated to providing pro bono trauma-informed legal services and anti-trafficking advocacy on behalf of victims and survivors. Brent has initiated and successfully advocated for survivor-centered legislation including Florida’s human trafficking victim expungement law, eliminating the statute of limitations for human trafficking crimes, and the non-criminalization of commercially sexually exploited children. He and his wife, Pamela (who leads Advocates Against Human Trafficking), arrange safe prison releases for previously trafficked inmates by coordinating safe transportation and restorative housing.
