COVID-19 Resources
Due to school closures and restrictions on large crowds, we’re forced to pivot our programming for the foreseeable future. But human trafficking hasn’t stopped; men, women, and children continue to be exploited, despite social distancing.
We refuse to let this virus come between us and our mission.
In a time of relentless unknowns, we want to make sure trafficking victims still have an escape route to safety, teens are protected from online predators, and vulnerable populations aren’t tricked into exploitation.
That’s why our work to prevent exploitation, educate the community, and empower survivors remains in full effect right here – online.

Building a Free Future During COVID-19

Give Today and Fight Trafficking During COVID-19.
