Restoring hope to a victim of forced prostitution can take several years given the devastating effects of long-term sexual exploitation. Without holistic aftercare, victims generally return to the darkness of sex slavery, as that is the only life they know.
There are a number of other excellent international organizations engaging the human trafficking issue in diverse spheres of influence. Lisa Thompson, liaison for the abolition of human trafficking at The Salvation Army National Headquarters, is spearheading political advocacy in Washington, D.C. to pressure the U.S. government and other nations' leadership to provide rights for trafficking victims and enforce laws to prosecute perpetrators. The International Justice Mission focuses on using legal means to address the trafficking issue and conducts raids to free exploited victims from brothels in Asia. Each is engaged on different but critically needed fronts in the global campaign against sex trafficking.
