Prevention

We prevent human trafficking through education, training, public awareness, campaigns, and outreach.

Mentorship

Mentorship is very important to help survivors in their healing journey though individual, and collective programs.

Empowerment

Empowerment is to help survivors in their reintegration bank into the community and society so they can live independently though the DREAM. (the DREAM= Direct services, Resources, Empowerment, Advocacy and Mentorship)

Partnership

To end human trafficking, we should promote partnership and collaboration, to help victims and survivors, we should collaborate and partner to make sure survivors will receive the proper help they need.

Dedicated to change.
