About This Field Partner
Mission Statement.
We help “find and free” human trafficking victims through strategic action with ordinary people.
The heartbeat of The Exodus Road.
At our core, we believe that human trafficking must be fought from within a culture it if is going to be fought at all; this is the only sustainable and systematic approach. So, we understand that collaboration with local law enforcement, national leaders, and like-minded organizations is critical for success. We are an organization committed to exercising excellence in our methodology, strategy, policies and partnerships. We believe civil society can make an impact on modern-day slavery — and work to mobilize it to that end. We also believe that “justice is in the hands of the ordinary,” and that every individual has a role to play in bringing freedom.
How we fight human trafficking.
The Exodus Road was born out of a recognition of the deficiencies of human trafficking intervention efforts. So, our main focus has been to empower Search & Rescue teams to work alongside national law enforcement partners to bring rescue to victims of human trafficking and arrests of their perpetrators. Our Search & Rescue teams are comprised of highly-trained and vetted nationals who gather evidence of human trafficking and facilitate rescue missions.
In our seven years in the intervention sphere, we have provided local law enforcement, governments, and NGOs with technology, investigative support, funding or training to enhance their ability to deliver justice in their own countries. We have encouraged effective collaboration among organizations fighting slavery, while working within national legal systems to effectively change criminal activity by making human trafficking a more dangerous crime.
Though costs vary across the countries in which we work, on average a night of investigations costs $35. With a monthly donation of $35, you can ensure the work of our Search & Rescue teams continues.
While fueling intervention (or “rescue”) is our core competency, we take a holistic approach to impacting the issue of human trafficking by funding specific prevention and aftercare projects in the countries where we work.
