Welcome to the Battle 2026
This survivor-led panel will equip our community with the knowledge and motivation to end trafficking here and empower survivors to reclaim their lives.
| We can become a community that is trafficking-proof, and it starts with your presence, passion, and commitment to join the movement to end trafficking here! Knowing the facts is the first, most crucial step. Join us at our annual panel event, this year for the first time with an all-survivor-led panel. We will learn about the realities of trafficking from the true experts who will share insights from their professional and lived experience. This is truly an event you do not want to miss!
