From Grassroots to Global Impact: The Human Trafficking Coalition’s Unstoppable Fight
What started in 2005 as a small working group has grown into a driving force in Palm Beach County’s fight against human trafficking. Founded with a Department of Justice grant to train frontline responders, the Human Trafficking Coalition has since transformed into a powerhouse of over 450 dedicated individuals—united in the mission to raise awareness, protect victims, and hold traffickers accountable.
Over the years, our Coalition has educated thousands through relentless advocacy, spearheaded public awareness campaigns, championed critical legislation, and developed life-changing resources for victim assistance. Our Coalition has become a vital network of service providers, law enforcement, educators, and community members working together to dismantle trafficking networks and create lasting change.
This journey is more than progress; it proves what happens when a community stands together against exploitation. The fight is far from over, but with unwavering determination, we continue to push forward—because every life saved is a victory, and every trafficker stopped is justice served.
In 2019, HTCPB received 501 (c) (3) non-profit status from the Internal Revenue Service and is tax-exempt.
