About This Cause
A registered Canadian charity, the Joy Smith Foundation is Canada’s leading authority on the prevention and intervention of human trafficking. We also provide support for survivors of this horrific crime. Through strengthened criminal laws, enhanced community awareness and compassionate support for survivors, we’ve made a real difference for people from across the country. The Joy Smith Foundation has helped over 7,000+ human trafficking survivors and their families restore their lives by reuniting, healing and integrating back into their communities. In 2021, the Foundation evolved with the introduction of the National Human Trafficking Education Centre. NHTEC provides education and tools to help Canadians across the country learn to recognize the signs of human trafficking to prevent this crime from occurring. We offer a wide variety of programs for individuals such as parents, teachers and youth, as well as professionals who work with survivors including webinars, in-person seminars, virtual training and more. We believe that education is our greatest weapon to combat human trafficking. We believe that through education, we can prevent more youth and at-risk adults from being exploited. When each of us knows who is most vulnerable and the signs to watch for, we can all take steps to prevent it from happening. Education creates more effective and impactful advocates in the work to end human trafficking. Education aids in the healing and recovery process. Focused programs help survivors and their families to understand the trauma and the journey to recovery. Education and training of front-line workers, judiciary and law enforcement increases productivity and utilization of assets in the fight against human trafficking. Your support enables us to provide free educational resources to youth, parents, first responders, educators, community leaders and those working in the justice system through the National Human Trafficking Education Centre. Thanks to your financial support, our Intervention programs support survivors and their families. Your donation directly empowers each survivor to get the necessary resources and tools they need to heal and rebuild their lives.
