How Christian anti-trafficking organizations help
Trafficking is modern slavery, and Christians have long been among those fighting it. These organizations work to rescue victims, care for and restore survivors with trauma-informed support, bring traffickers to justice, and prevent exploitation before it happens. Survivor dignity and privacy guide reputable work at every step.
Well-known Christian anti-trafficking organizations include:
- International Justice Mission (IJM). A global Christian organization that works with local authorities to rescue victims of trafficking and violence and to strengthen justice systems, founded in 1997.
- A21. A Christian anti-trafficking organization, founded in 2008, focused on prevention, rescue, and survivor aftercare across many countries.
- The Salvation Army. Operates anti-trafficking programs, safe housing, and survivor services in many regions.
These organizations are named for information only. Details are accurate to the best of our knowledge, but they may change; please confirm on each group’s own website. Being listed here is not an endorsement, and none of these organizations are affiliated with The Living Bread.
How to support the work, carefully
The best way most people can help is to support reputable organizations financially, learn the signs of trafficking, and share the hotline number. Be cautious of groups that publicize survivor images or stories in ways that could compromise safety; the most trustworthy work protects privacy above publicity.
Ask established organizations how to volunteer responsibly. Awareness, prayer, and steady giving are real contributions.
