5th Annual Freedom Network (USA) Conference
Advancing Freedom: New Strategies in Addressing Human Trafficking

The anti-trafficking work of Freedom Network (USA) members predates the enactment of the Trafficking Victim
Protection Act (TVPA). Its members served trafficked persons for over & years and also worked closely with
Congressional members and testified at Congressional hearings in order to bring about the passage of the TVPA.
The Network has grown into a national coalition of over 26 organizations whose mission is to work for full
access to justice for persons trafficked into the U.S.
Collectively, Freedom Network (USA) member organizations have served over 1,000 victims trafficked to the U.S. from
over 60 countries. Members assist persons who have been recruited, transported, and/or harbored for forced labor,
slavery, debt bondage, or servitude in agricultural work, child labor, child pornography, domestic work, entertainment,
garment manufacturing, prostitution, food service industries, other factory work, and servile marriages.
