Traffick911

Traffick911 began in 2009 by a handful of community activists who discovered that child sex trafficking was happening not just in third world countries, but right here in North Texas. Since then, Traffick911’s mission has been singular in its focus: to free youth from sex trafficking. Over its 12-year history, the organization’s abolition efforts include forming vital local, state and federal partnerships, training over 82,000 youth and adults face-to-face with an audience-specific prevention and awareness message, training over 18,000 professionals and first responders in how to identify victims, and directly serving over 1,000 survivors.  

Currently the organization formally provides services to Dallas, Tarrant, Collin, Denton and Ellis counties, serving over 200 child sex trafficking victims every year. The full-time team of 26 and volunteer army are driven by their theory of change, “Free people free people.” They believe that the extent to which they, modern-day abolitionists, accept the brave personal journey of healing and freedom, they will be able to facilitate freedom in others.
