We Fight for Human Rights & Social Justice in Our Community.

Along with providing immediate refuge and relief, we take a holistic approach to healing; helping clients move from surviving to thriving.

Between 14,500 and 17,500 people are trafficked into the U.S. each year.

This form of modern-day enslavement exists all over the U.S. but Cook County (Illinois) law enforcement arrests more sex traffickers than anywhere else in the country. And young women ages 15-24 are the most targeted.

The Salvation Army fights for human and social justice.

The Salvation Army believes nobody is for sale and that everybody needs a second chance. We fight for people who are being trafficked, giving them support and resources to leave the situation. We help inmates re-enter society as productive members of their communities.
