Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking (FCAHT)
Unverified non-profit organisation
The Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking (FCAHT) is an entity within The Immigrant Rights Advocacy Center, Inc. (IRAC). The organization was created in 2004 by Anna Rodriguez, who has extensive experience in how to identify victims, provide advocacy, and understand how to pursue justice for victims based on her experience in law enforcement, assistance for prosecution, and active participation in drafting human trafficking case law.
FCAHT’s mission is:
1. To assist victims of human trafficking to leave their trafficked condition by developing and providing outreach and services to victims throughout the State of Florida.
2. To implement support programs, networking, coalition building, training, service delivery, and referrals to victims in need.
FCAHT, an International and Domestic Anti-Trafficking Agency, is a 501©(3) organization that has been helping victims of human trafficking since its creation in 2004. FCAHT works closely with community service providers to offer victims emergency food and shelter, medical and psychological treatment, and other services as needed to help these individuals restore their lives and their freedoms.
FCAHT provides training to law enforcement agencies, medical facilities, as well as faith-based and civil and community organizations to bring awareness and recognition to the signs and symptoms of Human Trafficking.
FCAHT also works very closely with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Pinellas, Hillsborough and Pasco County Sheriff’s offices and local law enforcement agencies in investigations and prosecutions of traffickers as well as providing advocacy for the victims of human trafficking.
