Advocacy

PSC is dedicated to efforts to change policy and practice at the local, national, and international levels to facilitate the healing of survivors of human trafficking and torture.  PSC promotes and facilitates dialogue between policy makers and non-government organizations to create a robust anti-trafficking and torture public policy ensuring the protection of survivors' fundamental human rights.


Public Awareness

Raising public awareness for the rights of human trafficking and torture survivors is key to the success of the anti-trafficking and torture movements.  Education initiatives are directed towards the general public and individuals that are particularly vulnerable to these crimes.  PSC utilizes many different modes of communication, including public service announcements, media campaigns, informational brochures, educational campaigns directed towards schools and universities, and community partnerships.   

Prevention

PSC collaborates with local and international partners to reduce the risk of trafficking in vulnerable communities.   Our prevention efforts include improving educational and economic opportunities, particularly for girls and women, in high-risk regions.
