Presently, Justice Ministries is raising awareness about the issue of human trafficking and aligning partnerships with law enforcement agencies to increase efforts to locate and rescue victims. Along with recuse efforts, Justice Ministries is in the process of preparing housing options for victims that are rescued; being that bed space for victims is very minimal in the USA and there is a great need for more.
