Stated Purpose:
OUR VISION: A world in which no child is bought, sold, or used for sex. OUR MISSION: To protect every child’s basic human right to grow up free from the threat of sexual exploitation and trafficking. ECPAT-USA does this in four primary ways:
• advocates for federal and state legislation that prevents exploitation, protects children, and guarantees that any child who is subjected to sexual slavery or sex trafficking will not be prosecuted in the courts for prostitution;
• promotes corporate responsibility among private companies with a strong focus on the tourism sector.
• educates first responders and ordinary citizens about this issue so that they can identify victims and join us in the fight to better protect children.
• empowers youth to take the lead against human trafficking by equipping them with the knowledge and tools necessary to help them become activists against this terrible trade.
