Anti-Trafficking Outreach Intern

Our organization is determined to reach those at risk and in need in our community. After working with teens in
prostitution since 1995, Source began Source’s Anti-Trafficking Department in 2010. Source has partnered with
local law enforcement and the FBI to advocate for victims and survivors of human trafficking and sexual
exploitation. In 2018 Source was the Victim Resource Coordinator for Super Bowl LII, enabling us to continue to
grow in our outreach to victims of exploitation in our community. Following the Super Bowl, we continued our
partnership with law enforcement during the NCAA Final Four Tournament in April of 2019.
Source takes a holistic approach to supporting our vulnerable neighbors. Through our Outreach Program, we
strive to meet the physical needs as a starting point to meeting mental, emotional, and spiritual needs of the
people we serve. Our outreach initiatives are often the first point of contact our neighbors have with Source
through which we hope to convey a message of hope and opportunity. As an Outreach Intern, you will learn the
dynamics of working within a non-profit organization and play a crucial role in our Outreach Program.
