Our Mission
Project Lost Sheep's mission is to work with the community, law enforcement and other nonprofits to locate and liberate victims of human trafficking in the U.S. We provide or collaborate with others to provide temporary safe housing and aftercare rehabilitation services. We run a 24/7 hotline for victim emergencies and assistance as well as tips. Additionally, our mission is to educate potential victims, families and the general public in order to prevent trafficking.
WHO WE ARE
We are a group of people passionate about ending human trafficking. We firmly believe that no human being's life should be in control of another. Human traffickers look to exploit vulnerabilities in the victims they seek. Once this happens, the nightmare begins for millions of people around the world. Victims are desperately waiting for their nightmare to end; this is where we hope to put an end to that nightmare. We are comprised of individuals with extensive training in investigative, tactical and high-stress environments with backgrounds in law enforcement, military, and special operations.
