Landon left the music industry as a Billboard charting singer/songwriter to use her voice advocating for children and women who’ve experienced trafficking and exploitation.
Over the years, she’s lent her expertise to national organizations and boards combatting human trafficking and abuse of women and children.
She’s a partner with The National Center On Sexual Exploitation and a member of The Coalition To End Sexual Exploitation.
In 2021, Landon directed the largest coalition and demonstration at our Southern border exposing the human trafficking crisis.
In 2022, Landon was invited to give a TEDX talk at the historic Franklin Theatre. Months after receiving a standing ovation, she was told her talk, “Stopping The Epidemic of Child Trafficking & Exploitation” was BANNED by TEDX for supposedly violating their content guidelines yet they failed to cite any part of the talk that violated the guidelines.
Child protection advocates were quick to condemn TedX for banning Landon’s powerful talk.
