About

PROTECT ME PROJECT

Carla is the Executive Director of Protect Me Project.

 I'm glad you came by my page today.  You might care about the issue of human trafficking, but feel like it's too huge and complex to stop?

You're right about one thing:  it's HUGE and complex.  The 2020 Global Slavery Index tells us there may be 50 Million people enslaved in our world today.  That's more slaves alive right now than were bought and sold during the entire trans-atlantic slave trade. 

Studies show many people trapped in commercial sexual exploitation have suffered several adverse childhood experiences including violence, drug or alcohol abuse and mental health disorders in their home. 

According to a study done among exploited persons in nine countries, between 65 - 95% of sex trafficking survivors tell us they were sexually abused as a child, and this drove them away from home ... into the hands of pimps or madams who exploited them. (M. Farley, et.al.)  Protect Me Project's mission is to "get there before the trafficker".  

Our prevention methods strategically address core attitudes about male entitlement, human dignity and authentic freedom.  (Please visit our "resources" tab for details.)

As Protect Me Project partners with indigenous churches and local leadership, we are creating a network which establishes "no traffic zones."  Our local volunteers present prevention messages in age-appropriate terms amid their local public schools.

Please pray for our leaders and teams working in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, México, Paraguay, Perú and Venezuela.  

  1. Pray for God to raise up Spirit-led abolitionists from among vulnerable populations
  2. Pray for protection and open doors
  3. Pray for local businesses and agencies to financially support their work
  4. Please pray for our teams, that God would give wisdom and courage to obey
  5. Ask Father God to multiply leadership so we might expand this work
  6. Do battle on our behalf as we bridge into other languages and cultures in 2024

 

THANK YOU FOR PARTNERING WITH US TO GET THERE BEFORE THE TRAFFICKER.
