LGBTQ+ People Are Significantly More Likely to Be Sex Trafficked
For Pride Month this year, instead of incorporating the rainbow flag into our logo, we thought it would be better to advocate for real change. We often forget that the first Pride was not a parade; it was a riot. On Saturday, June 28, 1969, LGBTQ+ persons took to the streets after police in New […]
For Mental Health Awareness Month, Don’t Forget About Sex Trafficking Survivors

What people say about collaborating with TRUST
We are proud to work with so many community partners in the fight against sex trafficking. Our working relationship with TRUST gives us added resources in this fight. From training to coordinating on the ground resources we appreciate our enhanced abilities provided by TRUST.
Working against sex trafficking requires a nuanced analysis, a sophisticated approach to action, and a deep commitment to social change. It is rare to find groups that combine all three in a seamless and innovative way. AATN and its program, TRUST, provide a model for what effective and paradigm-shifting anti-trafficking groups need to do to make this world safe and sustainable, where women and children move from being victims to empowered survivors.
TRUST is the first contact we make when getting involved in an anti-trafficking project in Arizona as it has become the point of intersection of the many efforts on the ground.
One of the most dangerous and growing threats to children in Arizona is Human Trafficking. In working with TRUST, stakeholders across the state have access to training, resources and collaboration opportunities to help put an end to this horrific crime.
