The Exodus Road (TER) is a non-profit organization dedicated to combating and ending human trafficking worldwide. Since 2012, TER's efforts to investigate trafficking claims, undermine anti-human trafficking groups, and eliminate child trafficking have led in the arrest of over 800 traffickers and the rescue of over 1500 survivors, with the number of survivors increasing by the day.
There is no doubt about it: human trafficking must be prevented, and intervening in this crime requires urgent action. That is why The Exodus Road, based in Colorado Springs, Colorado, takes on human trafficking crime firsthand by empowering law enforcement, equipping communities, freeing trafficked individuals, arresting child traffickers, and providing care and support to trafficking survivors in the United States, India, Brazil, the Philippines, Thailand, and an unnamed Latin American country.
Through prevention and training, direct action with police, and victim aftercare, The Exodus Road fights for and supports the most vulnerable among us. This organization's actions serve as an open message to human traffickers all across the world: the defenseless deserve to be protected, not exploited.
The Exodus Road envisions a society in which people are never purchased, sold, or abused.
The Exodus Road team breaks the cycle of modern-day slavery by collaborating with law enforcement to combat human trafficking, enabling communities to protect the vulnerable, and encouraging survivors as they walk into freedom.
TER's mission is to not only provide law enforcement with the resources and training they need to detect and arrest traffickers in their local communities, but also to raise the finances and awareness required to strengthen prevention efforts and put an end to modern-day slavery once and for all.
The Exodus Road, founded by Matt Parker and Laura Parker and located in Colorado Springs, CO, has grown into a passionate, varied team with members from all over the world.
