The FREE Network Team/Partners/Members

The FREE Network is made up of a team of dedicated organizations working together to end human trafficking and support victims and survivors of this crime. Started in Hillsborough, Pasco and Pinellas counties, our member base has expanded widely and consists of a team of survivors, non-government organizations, service providers and law enforcement who take a victim centered approach in enforcing federal and state human trafficking laws. The group meets on a quarterly basis and invites prosecutors from the U.S. Attorneys Office, local State Attorney's office and the Florida Office of State Wide Prosecution to move initiatives forward in ending human trafficking and supporting victims and survivors in our community.

2. Share information and intelligence on current and emerging human trafficking trends
3. Facilitate cooperation and coordination among federal, state and local law enforcement and service providers
