Shield NC is proud to partner with the Apex and Morrisville Police Departments to expand outreach efforts within our local communities. Together, we are connecting with businesses that are more likely to encounter human trafficking in order to equip them with the knowledge and tools to effectively respond.

Our team provides on-site training, along with valuable resources such as employee breakroom posters, informational handouts, and access to the Human Trafficking Hotline.

A special thank you to our Outreach Coordinator, Chelsea, and our dedicated volunteers for leading this important work.

If your business or organization would like training on what human trafficking is, how to identify red flags, and how to respond appropriately, we would be honored to partner with you. Please reach out to us at training@shieldnc.org.

In just one week… Conversations began. Awareness In just one week…

Conversations began. Awareness grew. Lives were impacted.

From training groups and equipping youth, to mobilizing faith and community leaders and empowering parents—this is what real change looks like.

Because when a community chooses to stand up, traffickers lose their power.

We’re building something bigger than awareness—we’re building communities that refuse to look away.

Will you stand with us?
