DONATE

No human should ever be enslaved. ITEMP (Institute for Trafficked, Exploited & Missing Persons) is committed to rescuing those that are trapped in the horror of human trafficking. By providing the support, care and rehabilitative services that each victim requires, ITEMP is able to break the chains, help make them whole once more and build brighter futures. Help us change lives.

Challenge

Slavery (human trafficking), has always been a part of humanity's history. Though frequently battled back, the human trafficking industry has never been defeated. Now, with the advent of the internet, modern human trafficking is even more insidious and widespread. Its three illicit markets - for sex, labor, and body parts - have grown to become the world's 2nd largest criminal industry.

Long-Term Impact

ITEMP searches for long-term, sustainable solutions to the root causes of slavery. By educating a child, by finding employment, providing training, counseling, or supporting alternative income approaches for a woman, or by giving dignity to a man, ITEMP is able to provide the crucial stepping stones to changing lives. In doing so, ITEMP drastically reduces the chance that persons will be victimized or re-victimized. It is not just about treating the symptom, it's about curing the disease.
