Providing Victims With 24/7 Support and Resources
Working to end child sex trafficking
The world of human trafficking is a dark one. With victims flying under the radar in so many situations, it's important to recognize the signs when you see them. Gingerbread House Child Advocacy Center and its multidisciplinary team created a 24-hour human trafficking response team, offering support, guidance, and resources for human trafficking victims in and around Shreveport, LA.
When you see signs of trouble, there's no time to waste. It is important to contact your local law enforcement or FBI should you suspect a child is in danger of human trafficking.
Working toward prevention with education
Human trafficking is a toxic, life-threatening experience that leaves victims struggling to cope. Providing resources for human trafficking victims is so important, but prevention efforts can have a huge impact on fighting back against trafficking. That's why Gingerbread House Child Advocacy Center offers free human trafficking prevention education trainings for professionals, parents and caregivers, and youth.
