Freedom Cry assists human trafficking survivors on their journey of healing.
Survivor Support Team - Our trauma-sensitive advocates are credentialed crisis care chaplains who are committed to connecting survivors of human trafficking to trauma-recovery services. This includes, but is not limited to: referring survivors to mental health professionals, providing information about safe homes and transitional living programs, and offering peer-support throughout their healing journey.
Compassionate Coaching - Our trained survivor support team members provide a safe and compassionate space for survivors to talk about their experiences in a confidential and non-judgmental way. These individualized experiences foster human connection, hope, and resiliency.
Victim Witnesses - At the request of our local Victim Witness Office, Freedom Cry has provided a care package and meals to the Victim Witness Office for survivors of human trafficking who testify against their trafficker. In cooperation with the court system, Freedom Cry has also encouraged concerned citizens to attend the public trials of traffickers in order to show they are standing in solidarity with victims and the justice due to them.
Safe Home Vision - Freedom Cry has a long-term vision to fund a trauma informed, therapeutic Safe Home where survivors of human trafficking can find respite from a lifestyle of exploitation and connect with trauma-recovery services that foster long-term emotional, psychological, spiritual, and physical healing. We want to see survivors empowered with respect and restored to human dignity.

Our Annual HT Awareness Walk takes place in the heart of Sheboygan the 3rd Saturday in September.
Freedom Cry helps prevent human trafficking in our community.
Community Awareness - We participate in and host a variety of events annually that are family-friendly, foster an informed conversation about human trafficking, and distribute educational materials and helpful resources. Public awareness about the indicators of human trafficking reduces vulnerability by empowering community members to prevent human trafficking through situational awareness.
Presentations - Our Speaker's Bureau provides presentations about human trafficking. Public presentations provide awareness, fact-based education, and encourage prevention. Your place of business, house of worship, school, community group, or club can invite us to share important information that will leave an impact on young and mature audiences alike.
Business Outreach - We distribute educational materials to our local businesses about the indicators of human trafficking and how to effectively report suspicious activity to the authorities. Upon request, we are available to train business owners and employees about the impact of human trafficking and how to recognize human trafficking indicators.
Billboard Displays - In an effort to keep the prevention and awareness momentum going while providing an anti-trafficking resource to the community at-large, we have worked in partnership with our donors to fund billboards throughout our community.
