Finding new and innovative ways to combat the demand for purchased sex, raise awareness to this nationwide epidemic, and provide safe environments for victims.
Join us as we celebrate 5 years of lives transformed and the work being done to end the demand of human trafficking in America.
We are a faith-based, nationally recognized not-for-profit organization committed to ending human trafficking in the United States. With offices strategically located in Tampa, Washington D.C., Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Austin, we are aggressively focused on ending this massive problem happening right here in America by fighting the demand for purchased sex.
Our focus to end human trafficking in the United States is to educate American citizens and legislators, disrupt sex trade activities, consolidate efforts for maximum effect, and partner with other organizations in this fight. We also work in conjunction with federal, state, and local government officials who sit in a position to influence policy on ending trafficking in America.
Raising awareness is the first step. While more and more people are becoming aware of the reality of the problem, there’s still much work to be done.
To truly end sex trafficking, we must cut off the demand. We are identifying and replicating the most promising practices in America at fighting demand.
Through our safe home and victim’s services programs, we serve survivors seeking safe refuge and restorative care.
There are an estimated 4.8 million victims of sex trafficking worldwide, with the United States leading all other nations in driving demand for purchased sex. The demand for purchasing women, men, and children for sex is continuing to escalate due to our hypersexualized society, and the demand for sex with even younger children is increasing. This is attracting more sex traffickers to the industry who see a financial opportunity to cash in on the fastest growing criminal enterprise in the world.

Project Reach-Out uses A.I. technology to crawl websites where potential victims are sold for sex so that help can be offered directly to those being trafficked.
With studies revealing that up to 36% of trafficked minors are male, we’ve built the nation’s FIRST and ONLY safe home for these victims who need shelter, protection, and healing.
Our community-wide strategy to end human trafficking relies on community members and leaders, law enforcement, businesses, schools, healthcare organizations, churches and the media.
