UAS Survey Leaders

United Against Slavery (UAS) joined subject matter experts from across the globe and UAS hosted the 2016 Pilot Study, which had survey respondents representing 47 states and 70 countries. This Pilot Study brought together trafficking survivors, organization leaders, and other frontline stakeholder groups, including concerned citizens throughout the United States and abroad to allow everyone's voice to be heard through a secure, online survey.

We appreciate the diversity of our UAS Survey Leaders to include Survivor Leaders of all forms of human trafficking and additional subject matter experts of different races, genders, religions, and political affiliations. Every leader has their own journey. Their own story to tell. We are honored and inspired to let their voices be heard as they shared challenges identified on their frontlines.

" Every leader has their own journey. Their own story to tell."

We all have the choice on whether we will unify and rise up to collaboratively problem-solve each of the issues identified and documented through the global National Outreach Survey (NOS).​ We appreciate their willingness to use their expertise and passion to impact change in the National Outreach Survey. You will see their name and the stakeholder group that they contributed survey questions towards. The Survey Leaders are not listed in any particular order and some SME's have requested to remain anonymous. We appreciate the efforts of every contributor!

​

We have over 50 leaders from 22 countries that used their voice!
