About Stopping Traffick
Stopping Traffick is a survivor-founded nonprofit based on Alabama's Gulf Coast. We exist to end human trafficking through prevention, advocacy and direct support for victims and survivors.
Our founder and speakers have reached more than 1.5 million people at over 100 engagements: school assemblies, church groups, civic clubs, conferences and podcasts. We talk plainly about how trafficking really happens today, especially online, and what parents and young people can do about it.
We stand beside victims and their families when the system tells them to go home, and we work with local and federal agencies and lawmakers to change how cases like theirs are handled. Our goal is simple: no victim in Alabama should ever be told their case is going nowhere.
Through fundraising, scholarships and a helping hand, we meet the immediate and long-term needs of people rebuilding their lives after trafficking. Hope is not an abstract idea here; it is a scholarship, a bill paid, a door opened.
Our long-term aim is a dedicated facility on the Gulf Coast offering comprehensive care for survivors. Every donation, every shirt sold and every volunteer hour moves that goal closer.
Our mission
Stopping Traffick is committed to eradicating human trafficking through prevention, advocacy and support for victims and survivors. Our primary goal is to raise funds that meet the immediate and long-term needs of trafficking victims, with the ultimate aim of opening a facility that provides comprehensive care.
Our tagline says it best: Be the light. We shine a light on the areas where exploitation hides, and if we cannot change the whole world at once, we can change one child's life, one adult's life, one family's story.
Too many victims are dismissed because the law, and the people enforcing it, do not recognize what happened to them as a crime worth pursuing. We are working to change that at the local and federal level, and to change the stigma that keeps survivors silent, so more people feel safe coming forward.
If you lead a school, church, business or civic group, the fastest way to help is to give us the microphone. One conversation can be the moment someone recognizes what is happening to them or to a friend.
