What We Do

Shared Hope International is dedicated to bringing an end to sex trafficking through our three-pronged approach – prevent, restore, and bring justice.

Prevent

We equip first responders and community members to identify warning signs of trafficking and employ intervention techniques to rescue child trafficking victims.

We advance the prioritization of ending child sex slavery by initiating campaigns that raise alarm in communities.

We share our expertise and resources to accelerate solutions to combat sexual exploitation.

Restore

We support safe homes, medical care, education, vocational training, therapy, and outreach and intervention services for survivors.

Survivors of trafficking share their story to encourage others to seek healing and advocate for justice.

Bring Justice

Shared Hope International grades each state on the strength of its laws addressing child sex trafficking and produces legal analysis for stakeholders.

Our campaign dedicated to ending the criminalization of child sex trafficking victims and providing access to comprehensive, trauma-informed services.

Through research, advocacy and collaboration, the JuST Response project works to improve protections and access to trauma-informed, specialized services for juvenile sex trafficking victims.

As a legislator or stakeholder, consult with our legal team to craft strong laws to fight child sex trafficking.
