The Abolish Slavery Coalition
http://abolishslavery.org/Mission
The Abolish Slavery Coalition prevents the spread of modern-day slavery by helping establish and mentor human trafficking task forces both domestically and internationally in order to find and protect those who have fallen into slavery and to promote the infrastructure needed to rescue victims and assist them on the road to recovery.
Today more than ever, victims of human trafficking are being prostituted, enslaved, abused, tortured and murdered by predators who often exploit victims’ vulnerabilities, but with your help, we can free the captives!
