Together, we can prevent the tragedy of human trafficking, liberate others, and be the voice of those who have been silenced – one step at a time.
We are dedicated to preventing human trafficking and ending slavery
Not For Sale. One Step At A Time is an active organization working together with local authorities, community partners and agencies, schools and universities, and people like you to disrupt the demand in Stark County, across our state, and around the world – forever.
Our mission is to provide information that will empower you to take action
We empower and inspire action by educating and raising awareness about human trafficking. Some of the most important things to understand about sex trafficking and labor trafficking include: what are the signs that someone is being trafficked; who the traffickers are and how they target victims; who the victims are; and how parents can help protect their children. The more people who are informed of recognizing the signs of and knowing what to do if human trafficking is suspected could save a life.

What we are doing to help end the demand
