She is not one person
she is
every voice silenced,
every story hidden,
and every dream stolen.
To say I Am Rose is to declare: I will not be silent.

THe voice behind the movement

Rose represents the millions trapped in human trafficking today—those whose stories have been stolen, and those who are rising to reclaim them.
Rose stands for the survivors, the advocates, and the silent fighters who refuse to let darkness win.

THe story behind the symbol

The Rose began as a single image—
a symbol of beauty, resilience, and truth growing from pain.
From that image, a movement was born: survivors, artists, and advocates
coming together to transform awareness into protection.
Each petal represents a life reclaimed, a voice heard, a dream restored.

THe reality
we’re facing

Human trafficking is one of the fastest-growing crimes in the world.
Victims are hidden in plain sight, forced into labor, domestic servitude, and sexual exploitation.
Every 30 seconds, someone is trafficked, and only 3% of victims are brought in through kidnapping.
Human trafficking is a $200B+ industry, with over 70% of victims being women and young girls.
The majority of sex trafficking victims are Americans, in America.

But statistics don’t tell the whole story—people do.
When we share their stories, we strip power from traffickers and return it to survivors.
