Your impact starts here.
By donating your time and skills to ACT Alberta, you support victims and survivors of human trafficking across our province.
Together we can create change.
ACT is one of the few organizations in the province that provides front-line services to victims of both labour and sex trafficking.
Our Mission
We support and advocate for victims and survivors of human trafficking, increase knowledge and awareness of all forms of human trafficking, and lead and foster collective action through collaboration and respect.
Our Values
Person-centered response driven by human rights
A commitment to serve and empower all individuals using an anti-oppressive framework.
Evidence-based and judgment-free services through a lens of intersectionality.
Collective action through the coordination, collaboration, and respect of stakeholders and allies.
Care, Education, and Collaboration
ACT provides trauma-informed, evidence-based, and person-centered care for our clients. Human trafficking is a human rights abuse that can affect women, men, trans and non-binary individuals, and children right here in Alberta.
We educate our community on how to identify and respond to human trafficking, foster our vast network of collaborators that enable us to get our clients the help they need, and spearhead vital research and policy development across the province and country.
Since our first case in 2008, we have delivered direct services to thousands of people in need. We are accredited social workers, advocates, and educators who work tirelessly toward our vision of an Alberta free of human trafficking.
