Human Trafficking (SOS)

Human trafficking is the second largest crime in America. It’s the buying and selling of human beings, a modern form of slavery, which violates the God-given dignity of its victims.

S.O.S. (Speaking out on Slavery) Human Trafficking Ministry is committed to alleviating this form of exploitation in Tampa Bay. We focus on awareness and education to prevent children and teens from becoming victims of traffickers by sharing our knowledge through documentaries, literature, and presentations creating a call to action.  Our involvement includes supporting local agencies that rescue and restore the survivors, participating in street outreach, and collecting and donating clothing and household items. It takes a community to help right this wrong. We hope you will partner with us.
