The Landing

Why this matters:

  • Less than 1% of human trafficking victims are identified

  • Many victims don't even realize they're being trafficked

  • Traditional services require victim identification, creating barriers to help

  • By serving anyone who has experienced the sex trade, we eliminate these barriers

  • This approach increases victim identification and connects more people with life-saving support

Founded in 2015, The Landing started as a dream to reach survivors who were slipping through the cracks. Our founders wanted to create a safe space for survivors, regardless of whether they were ready to leave their current situation.
