Human trafficking isn’t just something that happens somewhere else. It happens in our neighborhoods, schools, hotels, online, and in communities across Georgia. Commercial sexual exploitation of children often hides in plain sight, making it difficult to recognize without education and awareness.
This short video provides an important introduction to what trafficking looks like in our communities, the warning signs to watch for, and why every member of our community has a role in protecting vulnerable children.
Awareness is the first step toward prevention.
Street Grace is one of the pioneers in the human trafficking “space” — a $290 million illegal industry in major US cities.
Street Grace is a faith-driven organization collaborating with faith, business and community leaders providing a comprehensive path to end the sexual exploitation of minors (CSEC). CSEC involves the recruitment, harboring, transportation, and/or the obtaining of a child under the age of 18 for the purpose of a commercial sex act.
Street Grace mobilizes community resources – financial, human, and material – to fight CSEC through prevention, protection, policy and pursuit.
