Mission and programs · 2023

• FIND RESTORE EMBRACE EMPOWER - We offer ongoing direct outreach to individuals involved in the commercial sex industry nationwide. These activities are conducted by our director self-funded missionaries linked with FREE and trained volunteers. Our outreach extends to street engagements strip clubs massage parlors and collaboration with social workers seeking assistance in identifying and aiding children under the control of pimps. We utilize large mobile units as command and drop-in centers to establish a visible presence and deliver targeted services in at-risk communities. These initiatives occur daily nationwide and form the core of our efforts. Central to our Find program is The Big Search a campaign mobilizing communities in major metropolitan areas to locate missing and vulnerable children. The Big Search initially launched during the Super Bowl has expanded into regular proactive events in various cities annually. This operation involves cooperation with Law Enforcement and Social Workers to compile a list of the top 30 missing children in the region focusing on those at high risk of exploitation. Leveraging our intelligence we mobilize our team partner organizations and numerous local volunteers to search businesses for leads on the missing children. This strategy has proven highly successful and has been executed in cities like Las Vegas Miami NYC Dallas Phoenix San Francisco Kansas City Indianapolis and others. We offer a broad spectrum of victim services through our mobile units and drop-in centers including casework medical and dental care legal aid court advocacy transportation and tattoo removal. We consistently provide these services in partnership with various cities and maintain a strong collaboration with Law Enforcement notably the Las Vegas Metro Police Department at our drop-in center located at 928 E Sahara Ave in Las Vegas. Additionally we organize large resource fairs for individuals in the commercial sex industry connecting them with our partners in Mississippi Florida and the Southern Nevada Human Trafficking Task Force as well as government agencies.

Officers and directors · 2023

As listed in Part VII of the 2023 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made
