Who are we?

Community Advisory Board (CAB)

The Community Advisory Board (CAB) is an advocacy group composed of Portland, Oregon- based individuals who have experienced sex trafficking and their allies. The CAB works alongside an Executive Team made up of leaders & decision-makers to provide insight, feedback, and recommendations based on their sex trafficking experiences, to improve services and systems of support. These recommendations are for things such as prevention, raising awareness, the criminal justice system, housing, mental health, and more. Learn more about the Community Advisory Board here
