Iowa Network Against Human Trafficking

History
The Network Against Human Trafficking (NAHT) is an Iowa-based organization who believes that human trafficking is modern day slavery where vulnerable people are forced or coerced into involuntary servitude for the purpose of financial profit for traffickers. We also believe that human trafficking is:
- A crime against the most basic human rights, affecting women, children and men.
- An underground activity about which there is limited information and knowledge.
- The result of complex issues with a global magnitude, involving social, economic, health, political and legal factors
Mission
Coordinating Iowa’s solution to end human trafficking through coalition building, raising awareness, providing education, and promoting advocacy.
