Help the Hotline — and change how we think about trafficking
[link removed]
John,
The National Human Trafficking Hotline’s first priority is helping victims and survivors take the next step on their journey to freedom — whether that’s finding safe housing, mental health care, or legal aid to clear a criminal record.
But did you know the Hotline also influences other anti-trafficking efforts?
Through thousands of conversations, we get to see a bigger picture: how human trafficking tends to happen, how victims and survivors are getting out, and what they need during and after exit. Understanding these patterns is vital to ending the crime.
Will you help us share our learnings?
Today and tomorrow, every $1 you give becomes $2

Powered by Trafficking Hotline data, Polaris shares insights and intelligence in ways that protect the privacy of victims and survivors while educating partners and the public. Here are just a few ways that data makes a difference:

Policymakers: Without understanding the full scope of human trafficking, policymakers risk introducing ineffective or even harmful laws that burden victims, survivors, and vulnerable populations. Policymakers must have accurate information as they create and change laws, and budget resources.

Media: Traditional and social media have great power to shape public understanding of human trafficking, but when misinformation gets amplified, it can hurt victims and survivors. With accurate information, media can help us spread the word in supportive and empowering ways.

Victims and Survivors: Common stories about human trafficking as abduction or captivity rarely match up with what victims and survivors have experienced. Accurate information can change these narratives — helping victims and survivors recognize their experiences as trafficking and contact the Hotline when needed.
