In its current design, our Youth Entrepreneurship Program partners with youth organizations to enroll qualifying classes of cohorts.
‍
Youth who are not enrolled in school; are experiencing homelessness, foster care, or unemployment; or identify as a person of color, LGBTQIA+, non-binary, or gender non-confirming are at greatest risk of trafficking.

If you are a community leader who engages, mentors, or provides case management for youth groups experiencing these vulnerabilities, contact [email protected] to get started on bringing the YEP experience to them.

A new year inspires resolution. If one of yours is education, allyship, or action, it won't take long to discover how human trafficking is inherently connected to nearly all other social justice issues.

As President Biden shared in his 2022 Proclamation, “Since human trafficking disproportionately impacts racial and ethnic minorities, women and girls, LGBTQI+ individuals, vulnerable migrants, and other historically marginalized and underserved communities, our mission to combat human trafficking must always be connected to our broader efforts to advance equity and justice across our society.”

We all have a stake in this, and we can work together to make a difference. Our 2024 resolutions are to empower more survivor creatives and create more prevention-based programs. Keep up with our progress throughout the year right here.

Human trafficking can be happening across the world, but it can also be happening across the street.

Do you know what it is? Would you recognize the signs?

January has been declared National Slavery & Human Trafficking Prevention Month by presidential proclamation each year since 2010. With the intention of raising the profile of the issue both domestically and internationally, the awareness month is a springboard for trafficking education, policy, and advocacy.
