Founder & Executive Director
Lynn Shaw, Founder and President. Lynn’s passion, commitment and involvement with human trafficking began when she represented an author who had written about her horrific experience at the hands of abusive parents and then husband and then the resulting years of her suffering, including the accompanying domestic violence that almost killed her and her children. After becoming immersed in the subject, Lynn’s further research led to investigating more about the horrific and ongoing pandemic of human trafficking as a national and global crisis. The time is now to form an alliance with proven warriors and advocates committed to raising awareness and seeking permanent solutions to this crime against humanity by bringing it to the forefront and educating the public, putting an end once and for all to all forms of human slavery.
