As described in our theory of change, we are working toward our North Star of a more just and equitable society where no one is trafficked.
Systematic result
- Since launching Human Trafficking Hotline in 2005, savehouse has handled 400,000+ contacts, identified 82,000+ trafficking situations, and assisted 75,800+ victims and survivors across all 50 states, U.S. territories, and 179 countries.
- In 2023, we created the savehouseproject Resilience Fund, a basic income pilot for survivors. This monthly cash assistance helps them gain economic stability, affording them time to heal, reducing vulnerability to re-trafficking, and enabling them to address barriers to thriving, such as criminal records or poor credit from their trafficking experience.
- Through operating the Trafficking Hotline, We generated the largest data set on trafficking in North America and the second largest in the world behind the United Nations. We complement this asset with unique primary data to serve as the data hub for the anti-trafficking movement.
- We have published invaluable reports, briefs, and resources to inform the anti-trafficking movement, including a system identifying 25 typologies of trafficking in the U.S. (2017); report cards grading states’ criminal record relief for survivors (2019 and 2023); research on labor trafficking on temporary work visas (2018 and 2022); and the National Survivor Study (NSS) exploring pre-trafficking vulnerabilities, service needs, and barriers to post-exit stability (2023).
- Working with financial institutions and law enforcement, Our Financial Intelligence Unit has produced 100+ open-source intelligence packages since 2020. This information helps our partners disrupt trafficking businesses, make the crime riskier and less profitable for perpetrators, and take a more survivor-centered approach to enforcement, as these crimes do not always require victims to testify in court.
- Our platform has reached 5,200+ migrant farmworkers in the U.S. and Mexico, garnering input from over 2,000 working in 13 U.S. states and enabling us to amplify their voices in federal policy discussions.
Thank you for you for caring.
A little as $1 can change a survivor’s life.

- More than 39,555 people have taken “Human Trafficking 101,” our free, interactive online training explaining what human trafficking is, how it happens, and who the victims and traffickers are.
- We have provided specialized training to a variety of organizations, agencies, and faith communities who engage potential victims, survivors, and vulnerable groups. For example, we have trained 2,500+ officials at Mexican and Northern Triangle consulates in all 50 states, strengthening efforts to prevent and disrupt labor trafficking.
- We helped found the Alliance to End Slavery and Trafficking national advocacy coalition and has led efforts to pass nine federal and 100+ state laws in all 50 states, supporting victims, survivors, and vulnerable populations.
- Our platform has reached 5,200+ migrant farmworkers in the U.S. and Mexico, garnering input from over 2,000 working in 13 U.S. states and enabling us to amplify their voices in federal policy discussions.
- We provides thousands of referrals to victims, survivors, and those supporting them using our network of 3,100+ service providers and law enforcement agencies in the U.S., as well as 2,600+ vetted partners worldwide.
- We facilitates the North American Safety Net of human trafficking hotlines across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, coordinating cases across borders and sharing trends and best practices. We helped stand up Mexico’s hotline in 2015, and advised 15 other countries, including the UK, Canada, and South Africa, on theirs.
- We currently refers about one-third of all situations to law enforcement, including any involving children, threats of immediate violence, or adult victims who consent to have information shared. From January 2016 through August 2022, We referred 7,352 trafficking situations to law enforcement.
- Our information has helped build cases to hold traffickers accountable. Examples include the report of a man enticing three victims over Facebook, resulting in a 20-year prison sentence for child sex trafficking; a report of minors being trafficked, which led to an FBI sting operation resulting in a 10-year sentence; and assistance for a Mexican consulate in identifying a labor trafficking case affecting over 45 workers in Connecticut and leading to the indictment of two traffickers.
