Bridging The Gap Human Trafficking Mobile App : A “Real Time” communication tool—easily connecting law enforcement, advocates and trusted community partners to help meet the needs of victims.

When a trafficking victim is rescued, they often need immediate resources and support. While many organizations, churches, and businesses have these resources, the challenge lies in efficiently connecting the need with those who can help.

The Bridging The Gap Human Trafficking (BTGHT) mobile app was created to close this gap by instantly communicating victims’ needs to organizations equipped to assist.

Our mission is to expand the BTGHT mobile app across the U.S. to support survivors of sexual exploitation and other vulnerable populations. If you are interested in learning more about the BTGHT app or how to get your region onboard, we’d love to hear from you.

Training

Law enforcement and hotels often have interaction with survivors on a daily basis. We provide training to help organizations identify trafficking victims and how to provide a trauma informed response.

Our founder, retired law enforcement officer, spent 11 years in the human trafficking unit prior to retiring.

We’d love to coordinate training for your agency.

Raise Awareness

A large group of people seated at round tables inside a decorated banquet hall with star-shaped pendant lights hanging from the ceiling. The room has high windows with green curtains, and there are some black curtains and a reserved sign on one table.

We believe that raising awareness is the key to preventing human trafficking and identifying potential victims. From 2019 to 2023, BTG partnered with Clackamas Community College to film and produce the documentary Human Trafficking: Portland, OR shedding light on this critical issue.

If your church or organization is interested in hosting a screening, we would be honored to provide resources to facilitate meaningful discussions and action.
