Our solution:
Legislative Advocacy
We advocate for federal and state legislation that prevents exploitation, protects children, and guarantees that any child who is subjected to sexual slavery or sex trafficking will not be prosecuted in the courts for prostitution.
PRIVATE SECTOR Engagement
We promote corporate responsibility among private companies with a strong focus on the tourism sector.
Youth Education
We empower youth to take the lead against human trafficking by equipping them with the knowledge and tools necessary to help them become activists.
Community EDUCATION
We educate first responders and ordinary citizens about this issue so that they can identify victims and join us in the fight to better protect children.
