Policy Advocacy
A core part of our mission is advocating for policy changes that facilitate easier access to help for victims.
We focus on:
1. Identifying Harmful Policies: We research and highlight existing laws and policies that unintentionally create obstacles for victims seeking help.
2. Proposing Solutions: We develop and propose policy changes that would remove these barriers and improve support systems.
3. Collaborating with Lawmakers: We work closely with policymakers to educate them on the realities faced by exploitation victims and push for necessary changes.
4. Empowering Survivors Voices: We create platforms for survivors to share their experiences with policymakers, ensuring their perspectives are central to policy discussions.
5. Public Awareness Campaigns: We engage the public in our advocacy efforts, building grassroots support for policy changes.
