A passionate community that knows their stuff and is inclusive to all. I learned so much at my first meeting and feel empowered knowing all of the small actions I can take to support ending sex trafficking in TN.
End Slavery Tennessee is a wonderful organization helping the people in our society that need an extra hand. I have been volunteering with ESTN for close to 4 years and it is an honor to work alongside a group of women who are so passionate about making a change in our community. Their goal is to create a slave free Tennessee through training, after-care, advocacy, and prevention. I love volunteering with this organization and helping those who need it. #betheloveseethechange
ESTN has been instrumental in changing laws and changing lives! Their efforts have helped Tennessee have some of the strictest laws in the country regarding human trafficking. As a volunteer, I get to be a part of the healing journey for survivors of trafficking and to raise awareness in my community to confront slavery. ESTN keeps the volunteers engaged and there's always plenty to do! #betheloveseethechange
I ended up at a lecture for End Slavery Tennessee in early 2019 with Dana in Franklin tn. I was shocked by the statistics and just knew I couldn’t go back to my life before knowing about this awful treatment and slavery of innocent people. This organization is the true front leader in providing a complete wrap around approach to confronting slavery in our state and the staff and group leaders are so passionate about what they do and believe in. I now lead the Clarksville chapter of end slavery Tennessee and will continue to spread the awareness of this amazing organization . Laws are being changed and lives are being transformed because of this group. Can’t wait to see what next !
I have been a volunteer with End Slavery Tennessee for many years and am proud to dedicate my time and energy to such a worthwhile organization. Their mission is to “To promote healing of human trafficking survivors and strategically confront slavery in our state” and I believe they truly live this mission out and accomplish it daily. They use Training, Aftercare, Advocacy, and Prevention to help survivors and fight human trafficking in Tennessee. I have personally seen this in action and the positive impact they have created in the state.
End Slavery Tennessee is a trusted leader, chosen by the state to be the single point of contact for human trafficking referrals across all of the Middle Tennessee region. They offer holistic care for human trafficking survivors. They educate the community and professionals about the problem of Human Trafficking. They also advocate for policy and laws for our state around the issue of Human Trafficking . I highly recommend the staff and the work completed by this organization. I have been a volunteer for ten years, offering both professional training to nurses as well as leading their local community group in Murfreesboro. I am careful where I donate my time and funds, I can assure you End Slavery Tennessee will prayerfully consider and deploy funds and resources that you choose to share with them.
I've been a volunteer with ESTN for 8 years. As a Master's Level Social Worker, I have the skill set to engage a bit more than the average volunteer. A few years ago, I made a video for Giving Tuesday that encapsulates my passion for the mission ... it's why I keep learning and showing up to support human trafficking survivors and confront dynamics of human trafficking in TN.
I have known the ED of this amazing non-profit for several years who has created an amazing organization. Knowing the importance of volunteers, End Slavery TN has educated and continues to educate people in the community about the existence of slavery in our state, advocacy, support and fund raising. While this is such a sensitive area for me, I really admire those who can volunteer hands on. I love to help market them when I can.
