"Taking in the giddiness surrounding the signing of this hard-won bill, I grasped Elijah’s photograph and wished that his grieving family had not needed to make the 10-hour drive from Kentucky in hopes that no other child would die as theirs had." -Lori Cohen, PACT CEO shorturl.at/o8jZW

June 12 is #WorldDayAgainstChildLabor! Prevention starts with recognizing where harm begins. Unsafe or illegal child labor is a part of the same system that enables trafficking. Access our free Youth Worker Guide here: static1.squarespace.com/static/61bb9...

Today is #WorldDayAgainstChildLabor. Child labor and trafficking are both rooted in systems that fail to protest kids. At PACT, we work to end child sexual exploitation by pushing for education, accountability, and real change. #WeArePACT

In the U.S., the Fair Labor Standards Act sets rules for youth employment. But violations still occur, and many children continue to work in conditions that are unsafe and illegal. It’s up to us to make sure stories like the one told in Newsies stay in the past. #WorldDayAgainstChildLabor

Thanks To @weare-pact.bsky.social for raising awareness through an educational lens on the exploitation of the "non-traditional victims like boys and LGBTQ+ youth". Keeping informed and identifying risk factors is essential in our work with young people.

We have some great news to share! Drum roll please... . . . . . PACT is an official charity partner of the 2025 TCS NYC Marathon! And what better day to announce it than #GlobalRunningDay? #Running #WeArePACT #TCSNYCMarathon #NYCMarathon2025

On the International Day of Innocent Children Victims of Aggression, we reaffirm a simple truth: Every child deserves safety. At PACT, we work to end the sexual exploitation of children by addressing harm at its roots and building systems that protect. #WeArePACT #EndExploitation

Parents and caregivers are powerful allies in prevention! . With the right tools and knowledge, they can help protect children from grooming, exploitation, and online harm. On #GlobalDayofParents, we honor the essential role families play in education, awareness, and prevention of trafficking.

What makes a child vulnerable? Being unhoused. Not being believed. Being criminalized instead of protected. PACT works to change the systems that leave kids unprotected in the first place. #WeArePACT #advocacy #protectchildren

Child trafficking is rooted in power imbalances, systemic failures, and lack of protections—not individual choices. Solutions start with accountability, not blame. #WeArePACT #EndTrafficking #ProtectChildren #ChildProtection

What does prevention look like? It looks like schools teaching online safety. Like hotels and airlines trained to recognize the signs . Like youth-led conversations about healthy relationships. It looks like PACT. #WeArePACT #Prevention #Education

Child sex trafficking doesn’t only happen abroad or in movies. It’s happening in the U.S.—in communities of every kind. PACT is working to stop it at the source. #WeArePACT
