Human Trafficking Collection

Human trafficking is the exploitation of persons for commercial sex or forced labor without the victims’ ability to leave the situation. Traffickers often use force, fraud, or coercion to control their victims in this modern-day form of slavery. The St. Dominic Human Trafficking Committee is actively engaged in the fight to end human trafficking and to aid those who are victimized through supporting the organizations that directly, provide counseling, health and physical care, legal assistance, and places to live, as well as other assistance to women who are victims of sex trafficking.

We thank you for your participation and help in advance. If you’d like more information about this ministry or would like to get involved, contact parish member, Michelle Mindham

The requested donations are used to directly care for the basic needs of victims and support organizations such as Bakhita House, Franciscan Peacemakers, and the Benedict Center to increase the numbers of those helped for full rehabilitation.
