Volunteer Work with Advocates For Freedom

James Pickard & others

Advocates For Freedom Mission Statement

To bring awareness to Mississippi of the problem of human trafficking and to work with law enforcement and other advocacy groups to help the victims of modern-day slavery.

We’ve donated approximately

100 100 Hours of

service to AFF.

Volunteering with AFFMy volunteer role with Advocate For Freedom began with their Super Bowl Weekend event. AFF combined their resources with KLASS Kids and other non-profits to do surveillance in the New Orleans French Quarter and the Mississippi Gulf Coast. The results of this weekend event led to the rescue of over 50 plus women some just 13 years old. My role in the event was to help the outside non-profits with learning the New Orleans French Quarter since I had work there in a federal street law enforcement role for over three years. I also helped the non-profits with surveillance on the Mississippi Gulf Coast around hotels, truck stops, casinos, and other sites. Since the Super Bowl event weekend I have put in over 90 plus surveillance hours with AFF. Most of the hours are spent at hotels, truck stops, casinos, online websites that advertise prostitution, and other sites. So far my work has led to a few cases being review by federal law enforcement. My other volunteer duties include training other volunteers in surveillance techniques and tools. Recently I participated in a Stiletto Walk to help raise awareness.
