What is trafficking?

Human trafficking is the recruitment, transportation, harboring, or receipt of people for the purposes of commercial sex act, involuntary servitude, peonage, debt bondage or slavery.

Making A Difference Through Education

• 

  First Responders

  We educate social workers, law enforcement, educators, and members of the judicial system. We see these public servants as first responders.

  What to Look For

• 

  Community Advocates

  Our goal is to partner with community advocates to raise awareness of trafficking issues in West Michigan and empower them to engage victims.

• 

  Teens

  We put tools and information in the hands of at risk teens that help them recognize warning signs of trafficking, fight back, and #stopthistraffic.

Treat

We invite churches, local social groups, organizations, institutions of higher learning, and businesses to raise awareness and funding for anti-sex trafficking programming and we collaborate with these groups to find solutions for our community.

• 

  Michigan has the second highest rate of human trafficking in the United States

• 

  Human Trafficking is a complex issue, though there is data to show its existence it is hard to quantify the number of cases from state to state.

• 

  Human Trafficking involves movement across state or national borders

• 

  Human Trafficking does not require movement. In fact a person could be trafficked while living in their own homes.
