THE TRAP
Are you an adult or educator wanting to learn more on how youth get lured into sex trafficking and how to know the signs?
The Trap is an immersive chat experience that exposes youth to the realities of being targeted, recruited and exploited by a sex trafficker. It includes four scenarios based on real-life experiences and will have different journeys and results depending on what options you choose. The tool was developed with input from survivors and frontline workers. It is designed to be used as part of a discussion led by an adult facilitator.
WHO WE ARE:
Freedom.
Uniting for hope, fighting for freedom. We are small group of individuals who have come together to change the world and believe that slavery and human trafficking can end in our lifetime. We educate students, organizations, faith communities, business professionals and corporate groups on slavery that exists today - both in our country and around the world. We believe that slavery can truly be abolished in our lifetime if we awaken citizens of the world to the dark secrets of human trafficking.
Our Vision
Our vision is to see a world where freedom is not seen as a luxury or privilege, but experienced and granted to everyone. We want to see a world where freedom and gender equality is achieved, and the life of a human being is not seen as a commodity that can be given a price tag. We have a vision to see slavery, exploitation — human trafficking — be truly eradicated in our lifetime, and to have our world unite together as one voice to say that a human being should never be bought or sold.
“Sometimes life presents an ask, rather a question. Sometimes it's an ask to help, or an ask to take a stand for what is right. And sometimes life brings you an opportunity to be a part of the SOLUTION that is needed in the world. I was confronted with this ask and presented with this opportunity and I decided to say yes; I didn't know how or what, but I knew I was willing. This is the first step to seeing change.”
