I've recently been added as a member to the Survivor Advisory Council for the Collaborative to End Human Trafficking! Within this position I will be using my voice, experience, and professional expertise in
their mission to lead, empower and connect the community to eradicate human trafficking.
About the Org, from the Org!
The Collaborative to End Human Trafficking began in 2007 and was built on the understanding
that a complex social issue like human trafficking cannot be solved by one organization or
system alone. We recognized that only when we come together to unlock our collective
potential can we create solutions that break the cycle of human trafficking.
Vision: A world without human trafficking.
Mission: Lead, empower, and connect our community to eradicate human trafficking.
The Way: We provide leadership and expertise to empower a systemic, community-wide
response to human trafficking.
The Work: We equip organizations and individuals with the knowledge, tools, and resources to
address human trafficking in our community through four main initiatives: multi-disciplinary
collaboration, education and awareness, training and technical assistance, and community
engagement. As the backbone organization of a 60+ organization membership program called Greater Cleveland Coordinated Response to Human Trafficking, we provide strategic leadership to create social change.
The Impact: The results of our efforts include increased identification of victims/survivors;
creation of best practices and protocols in healthcare, law enforcement and the lodging
industry; and a growing trauma-informed safety net of service providers for those who are
trafficked in our region. Our efforts work to mitigate the widespread impact of human
trafficking on the health of our community.
