Every day, 150,000 new escort ads are posted online

Many of them are underage.

Sex trafficking happens in every state, in cities big and small—but most law enforcement offices don’t have the funding or specialized skills to act on it. Guardian Group’s analysts close that gap, turning up verified leads and putting them directly into the hands of officers who can use them. 

As a member of The Watch, your monthly sustaining support will help us expand our team of skilled analysts, ensuring even more victims are identified and brought home.  

We are looking. Right now.

Monthly donations from The Watch helps sustain our team of skilled analysts—ensuring more victims are found every year.

To date, we have identified 1,885 victims to law enforcement.

We simply don’t always have the officers available to do this kind of work. It is specialized, it is technical, and we just don’t have the people on staff that have the experience…so for us to be able to take the information from highly skilled analysts at Guardian Group…is a great way for us to have an impact in our local community.
