3 Generations works to raise awareness about sex trafficking and redefine it as a human rights abuse. The most common form of human trafficking is trafficking for sexual exploitation. This human rights abuse must get more awareness for being the world's fastest-growing crime.
Challenge:
Worldwide, it's estimated that there are 4.5 million victims of sex trafficking. While many Americans are aware that this barbaric practice takes place outside the United States, few know - or ever discuss - the disturbing reality that sex slavery exists in every state & every city in America. It is estimated that between 15,000 and 50,000 women and girls are trafficked each year into the United States.
Solution:
We use professionally produced, thoughtful, short films, & videos to raise public awareness & encourage focused action. We partner with organizations doing effective direct service or advocacy work to develop content & draw attention to their work.
Long-Term Impact:
Our strategy supports long-term change & national and international impact. We support efforts to train law enforcement officers to recognize that people who are trafficked are victims & not criminals.
