Relentless Pursuit Outreach and Recovery was spotlighted by KMBC for their efforts to combat human trafficking on National Human Trafficking Awareness Day, in collaboration with other organizations in the Kansas City area.
Organization Relentless Pursuit Outreach and Recovery was featured in a story by KMBC in Kansas City, last week. Multiple organizations around the Kansas City metro area spread a message to stop human trafficking last Thursday, National Human Trafficking Awareness Day.
Let’s take a look at this non-profit work a little further.
Our Approach
It is time to speak up for truth and actively seek radical redemption and justice in the sexual exploitation industry. The buyers are not feeling the shame they should feel. The sellers are not feeling the guilt they should feel.
Neither the buyers or sellers are feeling the pressure of consequence. And the victims are not feeling the hope that they deserve.
.The marketplace is hidden in plain sight. We can no longer deny these atrocities are happening right here, we as a community must stand against it. We believe step 1 in making change is for us to work together as a community and a nation.
.We must have a coordinated effort across all agencies, departments, coalitions, and non-profits. We need to have a unified message to the perpetrators that this won’t be tolerated in our cities and a unified message to the victims that we are HERE, we WILL help, and we WILL keep them safe. Without that we won’t make a difference.
To kickstart this, we are starting with the 5 counties and 42 cities from St Joseph to Harrisonville on the Missouri side.
If we can bring the Health Departments, Police Departments, Sheriff’s office, Fire Departments, all social services resources, non-profits, hospitals, drug treatment facilities, mental health providers and churches in those 5 counties and 42 cities together, then as a group we can change the path of this problem forever.
Our Mission
We are a community-centered, faith-based organization dedicated to eradicating human trafficking.
.We strive to heal and restore survivors, bring justice to offenders, educate others on prevention and awareness, and be leaders in the community to end the exploitation of human beings.
We seek to create a world free from sexual exploitation through enacting justice, providing recovery and training, and educating the public.
Change is possible!
