Hidden in Plain Sight
Human trafficking is modern-day slavery, and it is happening here at home. Trafficking is the recruiting, harboring, or obtaining of a person for a commercial sex act, labor, or services through force, fraud, or coercion. Any minor used in a commercial sex act is a victim of trafficking.
It happens in our schools, our neighborhoods, and on our kids’ phones. The United States is the number one consumer of human trafficking, and victims rarely look the way people expect.
Florida ranks third in the nation for human trafficking reports. We refuse to look away.
You are not alone.
If you or someone you know has experienced human trafficking or exploitation, you do not have to figure out what comes next by yourself. We connect you with vetted, trauma-informed people who care, and you can share as much or as little as you feel comfortable sharing.
How We Help
Confidential services that meet survivors where they are, from the first days of recovery through the years that follow. Serving Brevard County, Florida, and beyond.
Criminal Record
Expungement
Florida law allows survivors to expunge records tied to crimes committed while they were being trafficked. We connect you with vetted attorneys who work directly and confidentially with you, and we walk beside you through the process.
Reputation Control &
Monitoring
Once records are expunged, our team works to ensure they never resurface. With almost 30 years of background screening experience, we check, correct, block, remove, and monitor criminal record history, and notify you if anything reappears.
Education & Support for
Families
We speak at events, conduct webinars, trainings, and conferences, educating parents, children, churches, organizations, and communities to recognize trafficking and reduce vulnerability, demand, and recidivism. A trusted resource in Brevard County, Florida and beyond.
Did you know 48 states have passed relief legislation for trafficking survivors, some of which apply specifically to minors? Every state’s process is different. We help you navigate it.
