Freedom Bags

Respond to Rescued Survivors

Survivors of human trafficking often escape with nothing.  Oasis and Traffick Free Communities provides Emergency Response Kits (Freedom Bags/Dignity Bags) to law enforcement officials who give the bags to victims exiting slavery.  These Freedom Bags are filled with basic necessities such as clothing, towels and personal hygiene items.  They may also include gift cards for fast food outlets that would enable the survivors to purchase adequate food and/or other items they may need.

Your business, school, faith community or family can help provide these items for  a local TFC to distribute. Contact Oasis USA or your local TFC to receive a list of items so that you can begin to assemble Freedom Bags for local survivors.

Freedom Bags/Dignity Bags are given to local law enforcement who give the bags to children who are rescued from sex trafficking in the Los Angeles area.  This is a quote from a vice detective after giving a bag to a young girl rescued from prostitution:

"We gave one out to a recovered juvenile who actually cried when she received it. I don’t think anyone had done anything nice for her in a long time and I just thought they should know that the bag made a big difference for this young lady.  Thanks again."
