VISION
IJM’S mission is to protect people in poverty from violence by rescuing victims, bringing criminals to justice, restoring survivors to safety and strength, and helping local law enforcement build a safe future that lasts.
IJM’s vision is to rescue millions, protect half a billion, and make justice for the poor unstoppable. IJM aims to combat trafficking and slavery, violence against women and children, and police abuse of power.
OVER 25 YEARS OF IMPACT
IJM reduced slavery and violence by 50-85% in nine different jurisdictions around the world.
Since 1997, courageous partners worldwide have partnered with us to bring freedom and safety to vulnerable children, women and men. From our first rescue operations to our rapid global expansion, IJM has protected 10,795,165 vulnerable people from violence to build a safe future that lasts.
Together, we can build a safer, more just world.
Children, women and men face the reality of modern slavery, exploitation and abuse every day because people in power prey on the vulnerabilities that poverty creates. We’re on a mission to partner with local communities to build a more just world where everyone can expect to be safe and protected.
