Saving Lives. Stopping Traffickers. Strengthening Hope.
In 2025, our HEAT and HERO teams worked together to protect vulnerable individuals, disrupt trafficking networks, and support survivors on their path to safety and recovery. Here’s the impact your support made possible.
Victims Recovered & Supported
- 55 victims recovered from the illegal sex industry
- 18 juveniles
- 37 adults
- 583 victims supported through HERO’s outreach, safety planning, and resource connection
- Survivor‑centered services remained a priority, even without a dedicated advocate — a role that will be filled in early 2026 to expand recovery efforts.
Holding Offenders Accountable
- 143 HEAT arrests and 287 criminal charges
- 76 HERO arrests and 136 charges, including 87 felonies
- 60 convictions resulting in ~700 years of sentencing, including 6 life sentences
Community Education & Prevention
- 18 public trainings for parents, educators, and community members
- 12 law enforcement trainings across Nevada
- 54 outreach events led by HERO
- 25 regional partner meetings focused on coordinated anti‑trafficking efforts
Looking Ahead In 2026, we will:
- Welcome a full‑time victim advocate
- Strengthen partnerships with regional organizations
- Expand victim recovery efforts
- Continue advancing investigative tools and training
