Through victim services, education & outreach, and strategic partnerships, we are Utah’s catalyst to create a state where all forms of human trafficking are intolerable.
Located in Salt Lake City, with statewide reach, we serve Utah’s human trafficking survivors of all ages, genders, trafficking types, and immigration statuses.
In 2022, we served 580 victims, made hundreds of contacts via outreach, and trained 2,600+ community members on trafficking. As a result of this track record, the Utah Attorney General’s Office (AGO) partnered with us to form the first Utah Trafficking in Persons Task Force whereby the AGO is tasked to investigate and prosecute human trafficking in Utah while the Asian Association of Utah is tasked to provide direct victim services to human trafficking survivors.
