🚨 As Bike Week approaches, it’s important to remember that large events often attract traffickers looking to exploit the vulnerable. Right here in our community, we’ve seen the devastating impact—but we’ve also witnessed incredible resilience.
Survivors are some of the strongest people you will ever meet, but they need support to find freedom and healing. Let’s stand together to protect, empower, and restore lives.
These stores are close to home. From Daytona Beach and from Orlando.
Inside those worn, charmless Ridgewood Avenue motels are rooms that became Joni Harper's torture chambers.
That was where a sex and drug trafficker essentially imprisoned Harper for more than eight years and ordered her to have sex with one man after another, day after day. He controlled her with forced heroin injections, constant beatings, and stints in a locked cage.
His ruthless thrashings with a steel-toed boot pounded into her head and face left Harper completely blind two years ago.
It's horrific what they were put through. But their strength is incredible. As said above some of the strongest people you will ever meet.
We all need to be part of the change. There is always something you can do.
It's going to take us all.🙏
If you want to help or volunteer please reach out. DM us.

➡️Today we want to End January and Begin February with a note to all the parents loving their children.
🩵Dear Parents,
We see you. We see your love, your sacrifices, and your unwavering commitment to protecting and raising your children in a world that often makes it difficult. As an organization dedicated to helping families stay safe and informed, we want to take a moment to say:
🩵You are doing a good job.
Thank you for loving your children. Thank you for showing up, even when it’s hard. Thank you for making the tough choices, setting boundaries, and doing your best to guide them in truth and safety. They may not fully understand it now, but one day, they will look back and see just how much you cared.
So today, we just want to encourage you—keep going. Your love makes such a difference, even when you feel like it doesn't. Your efforts matter. You are not alone.
With gratitude, Love Missions Global
If you ever have questions, please feel free to reach out. We are here for you.🩵

Great job TJL and @wickey_byrd
@rosenhospitality and all the others who Were part of the 17th Annual Human Trafficking Awareness Day
Love Missions has participated in Human Trafficking Awareness Day since its early days at Lake Eola. This year, we joined virtually, which allowed us to balance other commitments while still being a part of the event.
One of the standout sessions was session 2 the AI presentation. The advancements in technology designed to protect children, deter buyers, and apprehend traffickers are truly groundbreaking and inspiring.
If you missed the event, you can still watch all the sessions on YouTube. Below is the link to Session 2, but we encourage you check out all the available content at your convenience.🩵
