Not Abandoned - Empower Freedom

Compass Empowerment Trainings

Replacing exploitation with empowerment must be an effort of the community, not just the effort of one single organization. We need you. You can help. Ending exploitation for even one life demands multi-faceted solutions from every aspect of society. Each of us has a unique role to play in creating empowerment opportunities and restoring freedom.

Apathy is not an issue for people passionate about freedom like yourself. But maybe you’re not as active in helping as you want to be because you’re simply overwhelmed by how great the need is. Maybe you feel ill-equipped to help. We get that. Sometimes we even feel that way ourselves. But, by equipping yourself through these practical and relevant training tools, you will become more empowered to create your own new solutions to exploitation. Together, we can do this. We are here to help you help.

"Empowerment abolishes unrealized potential. It kills me to hear of people who want to jump in and help, but who stop themselves because they don’t feel equipped or confident. These Compass Empowerment Trainings allow you to participate in practical, accessible equipping at your own pace. Come listen, learn, and be encouraged to find new levels of your own strength and how to share that strength more effectively with others."

Trafficking & Exploitation

There are many complex facets to the plague of exploitation and unfortunately, its reach hits every community of our globe. Online recruitment of vulnerable teens, trafficking of children, exploitation of adults, international sex tourism, and the abusive trappings of pornography are just some of the issues we'll cover in these trainings. Here you will dive into a journey of understanding both the heartache, and the tremendous opportunities to help in practical ways.

Understanding Worldviews

We all have a unique understanding of the world based on our culture, traditions, family, environment, and religion. We must understand our own worldview lens to begin to understand the perspective of others. This is especially important when working with those who are exploited. Poverty, trafficking, and other traumas create powerful subcultures with their own set of rules. Trainings here will give platform to exploitation survivor’s voices and practitioners with years of experience.

Sustainability

Pouring out your energy to help others can be an exhausting reality. Without a strong base and without ways of refilling yourself, your energy will eventually deplete and so will the effectiveness of your helpful work. Trainings here go beyond the encouragement of self-care and dive into an understanding of your very foundation as an individual. Learning to focus your mission will not only help fuel your empowerment, but it will also help make your work more sustainable.
