2024 Annual Report: A Year of Opening Doors and Driving Change
We’re proud to share HEAL Trafficking’s 2024 Annual Report, a reflection of how our collective work is helping transform healthcare’s response to human trafficking—locally, nationally, and globally.
In our 2024 Annual Report, we showcase the continued momentum of a movement that began more than a decade ago. From launching first-of-its-kind labor trafficking trainings to equipping thousands of healthcare professionals with survivor-centered tools, this year marked a powerful step forward in reshaping how healthcare systems respond to trafficking.
In her opening letter, CEO Dr. Amanda Stylianou shares:
“Our work is about more than just training—it’s about systemic change. By embedding anti-trafficking responses into medical education, hospital protocols, and public health policy, we are transforming the way healthcare addresses trafficking.”
This year’s Annual Report illustrates how HEAL is opening doors—to stronger policies, more informed care, and a future where every survivor is seen, heard, and supported. Highlights include:
- Expanded labor trafficking education, including the launch of Labor Trafficking 101—a first-of-its-kind course built specifically for healthcare settings.
- Global partnerships with healthcare leaders to embed survivor-centered protocols into national healthcare systems.
- The launch of HEAL’s Bi-Weekly Bulletin, providing thousands of professionals with the latest research, policy updates, and best practices in trafficking response.
- Regional collaboration through Train the Trainer, including a powerful local convening in Massachusetts that brought together healthcare providers, law enforcement, and advocates to strengthen systems at the community level.
- Continued emphasis on survivor leadership, ensuring that lived experience shapes every aspect of our work—from trainings to policy change.
This work is only possible because of the support of our donors, partners, and the growing community of healthcare professionals committed to making a difference. Together, we are building a future where every door in healthcare leads to safety, healing, and hope.
