Community

Training someone to recognize the indicators of trafficking is vital to stopping the crime. Think of it this way if someone robs your house, you recognize that the crime happened, you report it, action is taken. However, if you don't recognize that the crime was committed you never know to report and and therefore action isn't taken. By training the community we are providing opportunity for reports to be made and action to be taken. See full show notes here. You can help stop the sex trafficking of women and children in the United States for under $200 a year.

Aftercare

This episode covers the importance of the aftercare process. This is something Guardian Group does not provide directly, however, we have helped communities start a CSEC (Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children) Response Team to ensure their aftercare response is  victim-centered, trauma-informed and their resources are leveraged efficiently. Definitions:CSEC - a multi-disciplinary team made up often of law enforcement, victim advocates, nonprofit resources and district attorneys. If you are interested in what this may look like check out our local team. We helped set this team up and would be happy to consult with you best practices to establish a response team in your area, just email us here. See full show notes here. You can help stop the sex trafficking of women and children in the United States for under $200 a year.

Recovery

We are very careful when we talk about rescue vs. recovery. When you rescue someone you remove them from a dangerous situation, however, when you provide an opportunity for recovery you create a space that allows someone to return to a normal state of health and mind. Guardian Group simply exists to play a role in the overall recovery process. We believe the true heroes in this space are the law enforcement officers and aftercare providers.Full show notes can be found here. You can help stop the sex trafficking of women and children in the United States for under $200 a year.
