Abolition: Breaking Chains actively works to eliminate human trafficking - it does this in the following ways: Breaking Chains conducts investigations and works with various law enforcement agencies in an effort to better coordinate information between them. We have assisted in the rescue of over 1,700 women and children since our inception. Breaking Chains also recruits, trains and sends missionaries to Latin America, who conduct field work, and who assist in discovering women and children that are victims of trafficking and sexual exploitation. In addition, the ministry proactively raises awareness of the plight of human trafficking through speaking engagements, events and other activities.$63,946
Aftercare: Breaking Chains works to bring healing, deliverance, and restoration to victims of human trafficking and prostitution. For this purpose, we have developed a specialized aftercare model, and we have formed relationships with over 15 homes who treat victims. Acting as a mission sending organization, Breaking Chains works to recruit missionaries to work directly with victims in shelters. WE HAVE ALSO DEVELOPED A DAY PROGRAM TO DISCIPLE ADULT VICTIMS OF TRAFFICKING AND SEXUAL EXPLOITATION. OVER 165 WOMEN HAVE COMPLETED THIS PROGRAM TO DATE. ONCE RESTORED, THESE VICTIMS ARE EFFECTIVE IN REACHING OTHER VICTIMS OF SEXUAL EXPLOITATION, INCREASING OUR IMPACT.$84,094
