Here are just two examples of how your gift will help right now: FIRST, we’ve been working with four legislatures and two city councils that were actually considering fully decriminalizing sex buying, pimping, and brothel-keeping. Their “thinking”? That making it easier for people to buy and sell human beings would lead to less harm and abuse. (Logic we just can't follow.) SECOND, this year, we’re launching a training program for law enforcement and prosecutors to help them more effectively target sex buyers by teaching them the tactics used successfully in other areas of the country. That’s on top of ongoing and highly effective tactics that are already reducing the demand for sex buying, including: - Encouraging law enforcement to implement stings and anti-demand strategies, like income-based fines
- Creating public awareness and education initiatives that expose the terrible, destructive impact of sex buying
- Supporting survivors of sex trafficking as they seek to escape the sex trade
Give now to take advantage of the $15,000 Matching Grant! Until recently, the focus of society’s battle against prostitution and sexual exploitation has been to arrest the victims rather than their perpetrators. But the research proves: more arrests, fines, jail time, and sex offender registries deter sex buyers. Every day, sex trafficked children, women, and men are treated as commodities — bought and sold as part of a massive, worldwide business enterprise that has no regard for human dignity, human rights, or even human life. When you give now, you support a nationwide effort to stop buyer demand for commercial sex! Thank you for giving generously. |
