Every day we get a call that a human trafficking victim that needs our help.
Sometimes the call is from a police officer, or one of our other partners in law enforcement. Sometimes it’s from a parent, those are very emotional calls to take. But usually it’s directly from the girls.
Girls who are calling us for the first time are usually scared when they call us. You can imagine their fears, right??
It’s a big step for them to call and we know that it’s also a RARE step. The Global Report of Trafficking of Persons said that less than 1% of victims are recovered.
So, yes, we take these calls very seriously!
Let’s focus on the girl that JUST CALLED.
She’s at a bus stop in downtown Phoenix. She says she’s “on the run” from her trafficker but we don’t have all the details. We know he’s been forcing her to do horrible things for the past year or so.
Some of our security staff are going to get a van ready and go get her.
She’s going to come into the Phoenix Dream Center, we’re not sure yet which room but we’ll make it work.
Here’s our harsh reality, the human trafficking program at the Phoenix Dream Center is full. That’s a great thing for the girls who are in the program. But that’s a hard thing for the girls on the other end of our hotline looking for help.
We have a few rooms that have been down because they are under construction. Honestly, it’s zapping our funding to be able to take in more girls than what we have room for.
Can you help us with this?
We’re asking you to make a donation today that we will reserve just for the next four girls who come into the program.
Please, give what you can knowing that 100% of it will go to bringing in the next four girls who call.
Thank you for taking the time to read (and maybe share) this need.
