Everybody is deserving of a safe and loving home, free of abuse. MOCADSV unites Missourians with the shared value that r**e and abuse must end. We do so through our four core services; public policy advocacy, education, research, and alliance.

If you are in need of help, find resources near you by visiting www.mocadsv.org/How-to-Get-Help/ and selecting your location on the service map.

Identifying Human Trafficking - Ask Yourself:
Does the person appear disconnected from family, friends, community organizations, or houses of worship?
Has a child stopped attending school?
Has the person had a sudden or dramatic change in behavior?
Is a juvenile engaged in commercial s*x acts?
Is the person disoriented or confused, or showing signs of mental or physical abuse?
Does the person have bruises in various stages of healing?
Is the person fearful, timid, or submissive?
Does the person show signs of having been denied food, water, sleep, or medical care?
Is the person often in the company of someone to whom he or she defers? Or someone who seems to be in control of the situation, e.g., where they go or who they talk to?
Does the person appear to be coached on what to say?
Is the person living in unsuitable conditions?
Does the person lack personal possessions and appear not to have a stable living situation?
Does the person have freedom of movement? Can the person freely leave where they live? Are there unreasonable security measures?

For anyone wishing to schedule an appointment, please use this link: https://calendar.app.google/GEbWrLAjTCAvBiAo9 instead of the Facebook Booking option as I have not figured out how to sync my Google Workspace calendar with this Facebook booking calendar. Therefore the Facebook booking is allowing appointments to be scheduled during time where I am already booked.
