Bring People to Safety
We work with local police and trained partners to protect people who are trapped in slavery and violence, and then support them with trauma-informed care to rebuild their lives in freedom. We’ve partnered with police to help bring more than 95,000 people to safety from slavery, trafficking and other forms of violence.
Bring Criminals to Justice
We relentlessly pursue justice in court. We ensure that traffickers, child sex offenders and other criminals are held to account so they cannot abuse, exploit, or enslave others. We’ve helped local authorities convict more than 7,200 perpetrators in local courts.
Strengthen Justice Systems
We provide training, mentoring and support to police, judges and other community leaders to slow down and stop the cycle of violence. Since 2012, IJM has seen over 387,500 people trained, including justice system officials (police, prosecutors, judges and social workers) as well as community leaders, church members, NGO's, media, and students to recognise and respond to violence and trafficking. Through training and partnership, communities will be protected from violence, and have a safe future that lasts.
