HEAL aims seeks to end human trafficking by approaching it as a public health issue rather than a criminal justice issue, and by equipping health care professionals and systems to effectively respond to trafficking.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
HEAL Trafficking
HEAL provides health professionals, globally, with the educational and training resources they need to recognize human trafficking when they see it, and to humanely and safely respond in ways that protect dignity, show respect and prevent further harm to the person being trafficked.
HEAL has created assessment and protocol toolkits which are downloadable, shares best-practice resources with a network of over 4,000 health professionals in the US and 50 other countries, offers webinars, group trainings, and customized programs and speaking engagements, each based on the needs of the health professionals seeking training and guidance.
Because all of HEAL’s trainers are recognized experts in the field of human trafficking as a health crisis, each program’s purpose is to educate and train, ultimately putting an end to trafficking.
HEAL’s reach is worldwide. If there is a need, (and there isn’t a corner of the world where human trafficking doesn’t exist), then HEAL is available to help.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
HEAL aims to provide trauma and lived experience-informed and person-centered resources both for individual health care workers as well as larger health centers and systems. In addition, HEAL's goals focus on providing excellent training and technical assistance for health care providers and systems in order to support them in identifying and addressing human trafficking.
One of HEAL's most impactful programs is the HEAL network, which connects over 4,500 professionals from over 50 countries in their efforts to end human trafficking.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
HEAL takes a systems-change approach to end human trafficking by approaching it as a public health issue rather than a criminal justice issue. By partnering with experts (those with lived experience as well as those with varied professional expertise) at both national and international levels, we focus on providing the highest level of training, technical assistance and up-to-date resources to empower individuals and support system-level protocol development. In these ways, we are helping to build our collective capacity to respond to and address human trafficking in an impactful way.
In addition, HEAL advocates for local, state and federal policies that support survivors of human trafficking and empower systems to respond to and prevent human trafficking.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
In addition to HEAL's global network of over 4,500 professionals, the organization maintains a dedicated board and leadership staff. All of the Board members are actively involved in the organization, bringing diverse skills, expertise, perspectives, and insights into the anti-trafficking field. HEAL also partners with other organizations to share best practices, collaborate on various initiatives, and to advance the mission of ending human trafficking.
In terms of funding, HEAL is the recipient of grants, as well as individual and foundation-based donations. These are the mechanisms that keep the organization running financially.
Overall, it is HEAL's people and wide-reaching network that are the greatest assets for reaching the organization's goals.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
Since its inception in 2013, HEAL has grown a network of over 4,500 professionals spanning over 50 countries, and has provided training to over 20,000 individuals since 2017.
Through HEAL's Train the Trainer Academy, an annual two-day intensive course delivered since 2019 in collaboration with the MGH Institute of Health Professionals, HEAL has trained over 180 professionals to be able to train individuals and organizations on how to identify and support trafficked persons. HEAL has also worked with a number of health care systems to implement anti-trafficking protocols, and has been invited to consult on curriculum development in various organizations.
The HEAL Protocol Toolkit, a guide to building a health system-wide trafficking response protocol, has been downloaded over 6,000 times in over 60 countries.

Heal Trafficking Inc
Balance sheetFiscal Year: Jan 01 - Dec 31
The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
