Anti-Human Trafficking

HT-page-slide.jpg

Our congregation has been actively working with others to eradicate the root causes of human trafficking/modern day slavery for over 15 years.  We collaborate with local, national, and international organizations on many fronts to promote awareness, fund shelters for survivors, and advocate for laws that assist survivors and protect possible victims. 

 

Through our Congregation Stance, we are committed to educate ourselves about the root causes, consequences and magnitude of human trafficking and slavery, to minister to survivors and to use our strength as consumers and investors to promote a just society that eliminates the incentives for human trafficking.
