Polaris
Mission Statement
Polaris leads a data-driven social justice movement to fight sex and labor trafficking at the massive scale of the problem – 25 million people worldwide deprived of the freedom to choose how they live and work. For 14 years, Polaris has assisted thousands of victims and survivors through the U.S. National Human Trafficking Hotline, helped ensure countless traffickers were held accountable, and built the largest known U.S. data set on actual trafficking experiences. With the guidance of survivors, we use that data to improve the way trafficking is identified, how victims and survivors are assisted, and how communities, businesses and governments can prevent human trafficking by transforming the underlying inequities and oppressions that make it possible.
Why Donate to Polaris ?
As new technologies become prevalent in society and our economy, they become both a medium in which human trafficking happens AND a means to restore freedom to survivors. Today, the architecture of web3 is an urgent human rights imperative because it will dictate who will hold social, political, and economic power in the near future… and who will not. As a survivor-centered, technology-enabled, and justice & equity-driven organization that fights sex and labor trafficking, Polaris uses its multidisciplinary expertise on human trafficking and applied cryptography to outline a vision for web3 that will empower and protect the vulnerable while holding perpetrators of abuse and crimes accountable.
