This grant provides over half a million dollars over two years, supporting our work to support victims of sex trafficking, while enabling us to increase the capacity of women we can serve at our emergency safe home. According to the International Labor Organization, commercial sexual exploitation across the country generates $99 billion in illegal profits every year. Launched in 2020 as an effort to pour resources into ant-sex trafficking organizations, The Jensen Project will grant over $4 million dollars to several organizations to support housing and economic empowerment programs for adult female survivors of sex trafficking and exploitation. Organizations were chosen based on a stringent application process over six months, consisting of written applications, oral interviews, and a physical site visit. |
