Sex Trafficking is an ever growing issue in modern society, but many are left wondering What can I do?
At Shared Hope International, we believe every life is worth living and that everyone has a role to play. We want to end the sexual slavery of America's youth through prevention education, partnering with restorative homes, and providing legislative and policy initiatives designed to protect victims and harshen penalties for buyers and pimps.
But we need help. Your help.
You don't have to be a super hero, you don't need to study the issue and be an 'expert,' and you don't even need to be in front of a crowd (unless you want to!) because the 'little things' that need to be done are critical to completing our mission, and we need you to help us because we can't do it on our own.
So here's how you can help:
-Phone Calls Over the next month, we'll be coordinating three separate phone calling campaigns, which means we need some awesome people to make those calls! We're working on our second JuST Faith Summit (justconference.org/faith-summit), a conference designed to equip and mobilize faith based organizations to be an answer to the issue of sex-trafficking in their own communities and we need your help getting the word out!

Mission Statement
Shared Hope International strives to prevent the conditions that foster sex trafficking, restore victims of sex slavery, and bring justice to vulnerable women and children. We envision a world passionately opposed to sex trafficking and a community committed to restoring survivors to lives of purpose, value and choice - one life at a time.
Description
Shared Hope International was established to provide hope to the hopeless women Washington State Congresswoman Linda Smith found enslaved in the brothels of Mumbai in 1998. Our early efforts targeted the international sex trafficking industry. As we became established leaders in the international movement to end slavery, our eyes were opened to the scourge of sex trafficking in the U.S. We could not ignore this injustice and expanded our impact to bring hope to American women and children victimized in the commercial sex industry. Today, we lead prevention strategies, restoration programs and justice initiatives to combat trafficking in the U.S. and abroad.
Our vision is to coordinate a national U.S. network of protection to improve the response to victims of trafficking. We believe we can create a world where every survivor is surrounded by trained professionals, an alert community, just law and policy, knowledgeable service providers and appropriate shelter options.
