Organizations Filed Purposes: Selah Way Foundation actively confronts the issue of sex trafficking through education, outreach and awarness programs designed to prevent sex trafficking and exploitation. It also supports intervention and safe housing programs for survivors of sex trafficking and exploitation.

Protection & Provision Program: The Selah Way Foundation trained 590 law enforcement officers from agencies all over the country including Arizona and over two dozen different agencies in the Southeast and 40 agencies in Connecticut. Also, In late 2019, we held a roundtable event with nonprofits, law enforcement, government officials and philanthropists in St. Louis, MO to identify potential partners and gaps in local services. This resulted with a statewide desire for training in the law enforcement arena and the launching of our Prevention programming. In the Healthcare space of the Protection Initiative, the Global Strategic Operatives (GSO), which is led by Deb OHara Rucksowski snd launched out of the United Nations, where she serves as a delegate to Malta has become the leading healthcare training model equipping healthcare professionals to combat human trafficking.

Prevention Program: Under the Prevention Initiative the Foundation has been working on the federal level, as Elizabeth, the CEO and Cofounder represented the Selah Way Foundation at the White House for the Human Trafficking Summit hosted by Ivanka Trump. The administration committed an additional $43 million to supporting the fight to end sex trafficking targeting our own American children, and we drafted HR 4388 which is pending in Congress to mandate the launch of a national movement to bring Prevention education to all K-12 graders throughout the US. We also have received mentorship from some team members that helped launch Franklin Coveys (Seven Habits of Highly Successful People) education model. They helped grow that division to a 30 million dollar arm, and are sharing best practices to take our education program into the US educational system with a sustainability plan. This will launch in 2 pilot markets - Missouri and Georgia.
