Human trafficking isn't just something happening "somewhere else."

It's happening right now, in neighborhoods we drive through and communities we live in. Every single day, children are being bought, sold, and exploited. And that reality hits hard.
At ZOE, we fight for these kids. We work alongside law enforcement, social workers, and community organizations to not just rescue victims but to help them heal and rebuild their lives. Last week, ZOE partnered with the Los Angeles Regional Human Trafficking Task Force for Operation Reclaim and Rebuild—a statewide effort to combat human trafficking. And the results were both heartbreaking and hopeful.
The operation resulted in:
* 166 adults rescued
* 11 children rescued from sexual exploitation
* 333 traffickers and buyers arrested
But rescuing victims is just the beginning. Once these kids are safe, the real work starts. Trauma counseling, medical care, hot meals, safe shelter—and most importantly, unconditional love. We walk with them through their healing journey, helping them discover hope again.
It takes all of us. If you want to be part of the fight—through prayer, giving, or spreading awareness—join us. Together, we can break these chains and bring freedom to the most vulnerable.
