WHAT WE DO

CAHT-SouthShore is a registered nonprofit (501)(c)(3) all-volunteer organization offering funding and services throughout the tri-county area. We are located in Sun City Center, Florida. CAHT-SouthShore recognizes the three forms of human trafficking:

Sexual Exploitation of all Ages and Gender
Labor Abuse and Corruption
Servitude Misuse and Manipulation

We do not discriminate against any victims, survivors or organizations involved in the fight to end human trafficking, a modern day form of slavery. This includes age, gender, race, religion, nationality, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability or any other form of discrimination. We are a viable, faith-based nonprofit partnering with our members, law enforcement, schools, churches, businesses, healthcare providers, and other human trafficking nonprofits to put a stop to the growing demand for human exploitation called human trafficking -a modern day slavery scourge that is going on in our nation and world-wide.
