Human trafficking thrives in silence and misunderstanding.

Each month, people across the nation join us to learn what trafficking really looks like and how to respond safely. We want you to know too!

Our next virtual Human Trafficking 101 session is a simple first step with a powerful ripple effect.

Your awareness could change the trajectory of someone’s life!

Our Outreach Team was back at it last weekend, vis Our Outreach Team was back at it last weekend, visiting medical centers, hotels, and apartment communities.

Along with a laminated list of red flags tailored to each profession, we also provide special key tags for cleaning and maintenance staff of hotels and apartments. 

Having staff who can effective recognize and respond to human trafficking is vital if we want to rid our state of this crime.

We partner closely with local law enforcement to identify areas where trafficking activity is most likely to occur, ensuring these resources get into the right hands.

These materials make a real difference — but they aren’t free. If you’d like to support this work, you can easily set up a monthly giving plan at www.shieldnc.org/donate (link in bio). Thank you for helping us equip local communities.

Yesterday, we issued an Official Position Statemen Yesterday, we issued an Official Position Statement and encourage other anti-trafficking organizations to do the same. 

As an organization committed to ending exploitation, we cannot remain quiet at this moment. Our shared voice reflects our shared commitment: to stand with survivors, to confront the systems that protect offenders, and to demand accountability for those who exploit others.

Action steps for the public are included in the statement.
