ABOUT
Not In Our City
Our Purpose
Not In Our City exists to raise awareness and educate people to take a stand against human trafficking.
Our Mission
Protect the vulnerable from the atrocity that is human trafficking in Arizona and beyond.
Our Vision
We envision a community of partners including local authorities, government officials, and organizations that specialize in stopping sex trafficking working together to put a stop to these heinous activities.
Human trafficking is a serious crime and violation of human rights, involving force, coercion, or fraud to exploit a person into slave labor or sexual exploitation.
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor; He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
– Isaiah 61:1
THE WORD OF GOD IS CLEAR.
We are called to stand against this atrocity whereby people are being enslaved against their will to profit the wicked.
According to the U.S. State Department, Arizona is not only a main destination for sex trafficking, but also a major transit point nationally and internationally.
There are several factors that make Arizona a focal point for sex trafficking, including:
- Proximity to Mexico, California, and Las Vegas
- Access to multiple freeways
- Popularity with major conferences
- Frequent professional sports event destination
- Arizona’s Climate
Unfortunately, Phoenix is one of the top human trafficking jurisdictions in the country.
Arizona ranks in the top 15 states with the highest rates of human trafficking per capita.
Human Trafficking is a $32B Industry
Over 100,000 children at an average age of 13 are used in prostitution each year in the United States
The fight against human trafficking is fierce.
