***Our website (www.htacouncil.org) is currently being used by a 3rd party that we are in the process of retrieving through legal actions. If you would like to follow us, please use our facebook page for updates. We are also currently reorganizing our structure and have not been active for the past several months as we pursue a for-profit insurance company to fund our efforts in the future. We are expected to return to full operates in the Spring of 2015, so please stay active in your efforts and together we will create change!*** Our mission is to educate professionals and investigate the crimes of forced labor and sexual exploitation of men, women, and children. We educate communities through hosting educational events and speaking engagements. We collaborate with government agencies and non-governmental organizations to establish acceptable preventive measures, identify victims, expose traffickers and users, and promote slave-free practices. We provide funding for programs that support survivors of human trafficking through medical assistance, vocational training and economical development, so that survivors are better prepared to re-enter society.
