We’ve been getting a lot of questions lately about the increase in Michigan predator hunters that are showing up on their social media feeds.

Here’s our response.

Lots of noise, posts, and clickbait aren't the way to catch a predator.

Vigilante work only gets in the way of ongoing investigations and aids in making predators more savvy.

Successfully catching predators, with convictions and prosecutions that stick, can only happen when law enforcement and prosecutors take the lead.

A large part of what we do as an organization is work hard to privately fund our local law enforcement here in Mason and Oceana counties to combat trafficking, and support them in areas where the state and federal agencies have failed.

In doing so, we now have the incredible privilege of working alongside courageous men and women who willingly give of their own time to stand in this fight alongside us and help keep the children in our communities safe.

We are forever grateful that you answered the call. 🩵💙

Sadly, the underfunding is not just happening in West Michigan. Law enforcement agencies across this country are underfunded, overworked, and stretched thin. Today, we honor you, too. 💙🩵

Thank you for going above and beyond, for your sacrifice, your fight, and for doing everything that often goes unseen.

We see you!

🧡🖤 Ludington Elementary 🖤🧡

Today we had the honor of speaking with the 5th graders at LES.
150 students are now equipped with ways to spot predators online.

Big thank you going out to Principal Jenn Mackey, SRO Deputy Barnett, and the entire team of educators. These students are fortunate to have you fighting for them, and their safety.
