Exploitation in Plain Sight – The Link Between Poverty and Trafficking

Trafficking doesn’t happen in a vacuum—it thrives where vulnerabilities exist. Poverty, abuse, and broken homes create the conditions traffickers exploit.

Stats:

  • 92% of trafficked victims report experiencing abuse, neglect, or extreme financial hardship before exploitation (Polaris Project).

  • Youth experiencing homelessness are 7x more likely to be exploited by traffickers.

  • Globally, 61% of victims are women and children.

How We Respond:


Free International tackles exploitation at its root by bringing education and awareness to schools, shelters, and churches—teaching young people how traffickers operate. Say Something helps intervene with at-risk youth before they fall into the hands of traffickers, offering hope, mentorship, and connection.

Call to Action:


You can help stop trafficking before it starts. By investing in prevention, you break the cycle of vulnerability.

Here’s how your contribution makes a difference:

Your partnership helps bring light into some of the darkest places in our nation. By standing with us, you join a movement that rescues, restores, and equips communities to fight human trafficking and exploitation.

What Your Support Makes Possible:

✅ Leading mission teams into cities most affected by trafficking, bringing hope and practical resources.
✅ Hosting school assemblies that reach thousands of students with life-saving messages about bullying, exploitation, and suicide prevention.
✅ Training teachers and administrators to recognize warning signs and protect vulnerable youth.
✅ Providing resources, aftercare, and long-term hope for survivors of exploitation.

Why Your Support Matters:

  • For Individuals: You can be part of the rescue. Your monthly or one-time gift turns personal compassion into tangible impact, helping survivors and protecting the next generation.
