RISE: Rescue, Intervention, Support, and Empowerment
Real Rescue. Real Advocacy. Real Impact.
Rescue is not like what we see in the movies—it takes time, dedication, advocacy, and extensive trauma-informed care. Successful intervention demands a well-trained, experienced team committed to patience, strategy, and survivor-centered solutions.
At Rescue 1 Global, we don’t view ourselves as the rescuers. Instead, we empower survivors with options, plans, and support so they can reclaim their freedom and take control of their own journey toward restoration.
RISE USA: Intervention & Advocacy
Our RISE Program in the United States focuses on three key areas of intervention:
✅ Community Outreach – Engaging with at-risk individuals and communities to provide education, resources, and safe options.
✅ Collaboration Support – Collaborating with law enforcement, social workers, and community leaders to identify trafficking situations.
✅ Mobile Response Teams – Deploying trained teams to assist self-identified survivors and minors seeking escape from trafficking situations. Our Mobile Response Teams are trauma-informed individuals who provide support to the survivors, ensuring that they feel safe, their basic needs are met, and that their voices and choices are heard.
Who Calls for Help?
Victims and survivors of trafficking often reach out for assistance. However, requests for intervention also come from:
- Federal, state, and local law enforcement
- District Attorney’s offices
- Social workers and medical professionals
- Teachers, classmates, and school staff
- Observant citizens and concerned family members
- Victims themselves
With each request, our team assesses the situation, ensures safety, and develops a personalized intervention plan that prioritizes survivor autonomy and well-being.
RISE International: Strategic Rescue & Recovery
Many people imagine international rescue efforts as dramatic, immediate extractions—but real rescue work is complex, methodical, and often long-term. To protect victims and our teams, we operate discreetly, navigating dangerous and covert trafficking networks.
How We Conduct International Rescue Work
Our teams work strategically to infiltrate and dismantle trafficking operations in:
- Clubs and bars
- Brothels and hotels
- Street-based networks
- Storefronts and other exploitative businesses
Every intervention is carefully assessed to ensure the best possible outcome, prioritizing survivor safety, legal accountability, and long-term recovery solutions.
