I am writing this letter to recommend Marti MacGibbon for future speaking engagements. I had the pleasure of working with Marti when she presented at the Indiana Annual Recovery Month Symposium. Many attendees commented on her enthusiasm for life as she told her story of recovery from addiction and many other issues. Marti’s personal experience along with her clinical expertise facilitated a greater learning opportunity for attendees as she was able to teach by example.
Marti has my highest recommendation, and I am happy to furnish additional details if you would like more information.

To Whom It May Concern:
In June, I booked Marti MacGibbon to be the keynote speaker at the Junior League of Cincinnati’s inaugural Sustainer Forum. On October 6, she held the sold-out audience in the palm of her hand as she shared her story as a survivor of human trafficking.
The attendees ranged in age from mid-30s to late 70s and her message was relevant to all. The Q&A segment – in which she and a FBI Special Agent shared the podium – demonstrated that there was something for everyone in Marti’s story.

Marion County Family Drug Treatment Court (MCFDTC) provides intensive case management and coordination of services to parents who have an open Child in Need of Services case due in part to addiction issues.
MCFDTC staff first heard Marti MacGibbon speak on May 14, 2014 at a Trauma Informed Care Symposium facilitated by the Department of Child Services. After meeting Marti and her learning about MCFDTC, she offered her services to the program.

Thank you, once again, for arranging your schedule to come and speak at the Museum of Tolerance. Your personal testimony of Human Trafficking is a very important one. It reveals the vulnerability of youth, the challenge of choices, and ultimately, the empowerment possible when someone courageously confronts evil. Your audience was very attentive and engaged.
Your story is inspirational. You are a survivor of human trafficking and drug abuse who was able to turn your life around, escaping from Japan, conquering drug abuse, gaining an education, and now living a happy life, giving back to society and helping others.
