End Human Trafficking in Atlanta
The state of Georgia, particularly Atlanta, has become one of the biggest hubs for sex trafficking in the United States. This form of modern-day slavery is the second largest illegal enterprise in the world. The National Human Trafficking Hotline reports Georgia's hotline signal volume as the 7th highest among the 50 states and Washington D.C for 2020.
Human trafficking denies the value of human life, exposes victims to serious health risks, endangers the mental well-being of victims, and impedes the ability of victims to reach their God-given potential. The Shalom Spiritual Center is dedicated to ending human and sex trafficking in the Atlanta area by advocating for local and national policies that protect homeless and vulnerable individuals. Our advocacy includes spiritual formation, poverty relief and education in coordination with national body of The United Church of Christ. Please donate whatever you can to support this important work.
