Lisa Ivy is the Director of Prevention Education at Street Hope TN. Her heart is to prevent teens from ever being a part of human trafficking or exploitation.
In the state of TN, every single county has been affected by Human Trafficking and we want to bring awareness to stop it in its tracks.
"Street Hope TN's is a nonprofit organization on a mission to eliminate the sexual exploitation and trafficking of children in Tennessee and provide safe environments to foster hope and healing through Jesus Christ.
Statistics cannot define slavery.
- 94 Is the Average Number of reported children sold for sex online in Tennessee each month.
- 13 Is the Average age a child becomes a victim of DMST (Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking).
- $99+ Billion reported annual revenue internationally for sex trafficking.
- 31.9 Million reports of online sexual exploitation of children in 2022.
These numbers may get your attention; however, they don’t tell the full story.
Modern-day slavery is a dark and hidden act, an act that often goes undetected and unreported.
The statistics available are based only on cases that have been identified and reported."
