What we do
Prevention
Using the ENLIGHTENED presentation, the ITL team educates high-risk children on the methods sex traffickers use to lure their victims. Education equals prevention. Into the Light equips communities, social services and law enforcement on the root causes of sex trafficking and red flags indicating trafficking.
intervention
Once a survivor of trafficking and exploitation is identified our team steps in to provide swift crisis intervention by meeting immediate needs and collaborating with all social services and law enforcement partners to ensure safety, justice is served, and a relationship with the child is established.
advocacy
Our team of driven advocates build trust through weekly trauma-informed support and mentorship, intensive case management, on-going safety planning, court and law enforcement advocacy, self-efficacy building, and celebrating every step forward.
