Anti-Trafficking Church
Response Hub
Empowering churches to identify, respond to, and support trafficking survivors
About This Program
The Anti-Trafficking Church Response Hub equips churches with the knowledge, resources, and protocols to recognize signs of human trafficking, respond appropriately, and provide trauma-informed support to survivors. We provide survivor-informed guidelines, vetted referral directories, and transparent “do no harm” protocols.
Human trafficking is a hidden crisis affecting every community. Churches are uniquely positioned to be safe havens for survivors, but must be equipped with proper training to avoid causing further harm. This program provides the tools and network your church needs to make a real difference.
