Anti-trafficking advocate Scarlet Hudson doesn’t win often, she said Wednesday night. Only about 7% of the people she and the other Women of Alabaster approach wind up getting clean. Maybe a little less, even — somewhere between one in 15 and one in 20, per her own personal accounting of the hundreds she meets every year. But the victories make it worthwhile to spend every Thursday and Saturday driving around in a loaned-out church van, approaching people working as prostitutes and offering them food, hygiene items and understanding company. They call her Mama Scar.
