HOW WE ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE
Combating modern-day slavery is both challenging and highly complex. ATB has four divisions, and each division plays a crucial role in our integrated strategy to combat human trafficking, ensuring that we address every aspect of this complex issue comprehensively and effectively.
Preventing human trafficking at its source is critical to avoiding the long-term trauma inflicted by this crime. For survivors, aftercare is essential in helping to restore lives shattered by exploitation: the third and fourth division investigation/ intervention and rescue operations. ATB has a team fully dedicated to investigating human trafficking, The investigative is a victim-centered task force. Therefore, the primary goal of all investigations is to recover the victim. The secondary goal is to arrest and prosecute the trafficker.
