Author: Billy Joe Cain

Billy Joe has spent 30 years in the interactive space, creating award-winning games, simulations, educational programs, and “gamified” training products. After he learned his children were being groomed by a sex predator, whom he had known as a friend for years, he dedicated himself to helping others that didn't understand how anything like human trafficking could happen to them. In 2021, he co-founded PBJ Learning with his partner, Dr. David Deeds, to provide online certificate-level training around the world, accurately, at scale. He is a member of the Prevention Workgroup of the Texas Human Trafficking Prevention Taskforce, Central Texas Coalition Against Human Trafficking (CTCAHT), Houston Area Against Trafficking (HAAT), and the Tarrant County 5-Stones Taskforce.
