The contest was judged by journalists at press clubs across the nation, including the National Press Club in Washington, DC. Judges' comment: "In a searing exploration of the sexual exploitation and trafficking of women worldwide, journalist Chelo Alvarez-Stehle also documents her own relatives' sexual abuse, as well as herself, as they work through their efforts at coping and healing.
