The Salvation Army
Unverified non-profit organisation
The Salvation Army is known for its thrift stores and charity work that operates in over 120 countries. It is deeply committed to fighting human trafficking and has sought to reduce the worldwide phenomenon of abuse of individuals or groups of people for personal and inhuman gain.
To achieve that it has established places of refuge for victims, sought legal changes that would both prevent trafficking and punish those involved, and created alternatives for those vulnerable to trafficking. Through its constituent territories, corps, centers and individual members, The Salvation Army continues to plan and undertake culturally and biblically appropriate responses which will help to eliminate the development or continuation of any form of human trafficking, especially sex trafficking and the sale of human organs.
The Salvation Army also takes an active role in researching where human trafficking is occurring and aims to raise public awareness. It also encourages cooperation and networking with all credible organizations and agencies working locally and globally to achieve the elimination of human trafficking and to provide support to trafficked people.
