the problem
Sex trafficking is taking place in plain sight. Here in America. Right now.
Trafficking often goes undetected because it is difficult to identify. Educating the public on the red flags of trafficking and how to report means more victims will receive help and more traffickers and buyers will be held accountable.
empowering the community
We train professionals and community members in the Roanoke Valley and surrounding areas to identify, report, and respond appropriately to sexual exploitation and trafficking.
No matter what line of work you are in, we believe trafficking training is beneficial to all career fields.
