Awareness, Engaging our Community

We believe in the power of education to not only inform but to equip our supporters and our community to advocate for change. The truth is that if we don’t know what to look for, we’re never going to see it. And if we don’t believe there’s a problem, we won’t be able to work together to solve it. Below you will find a few resources to help you on your journey to better understand what human trafficking is, how it happens in our country and in our Commonwealth, and what to do if you see or suspect it. And, hopefully, it will inspire you to join us in our mission to prevent the next generation from falling for the traps of traffickers and provide support to local survivors on their journey to freedom.
