Doctors At War




Doctors at War provides medical treatment to combat the abuses suffered by human trafficking victims.

We are fighting human trafficking in many ways including connecting doctors and other healthcare professionals with those who are involved in the front lines of this fight, and giving them the opportunity to make a difference. We are working with safe houses worldwide involved in the rescue and restoration of survivors.
Their ultimate goal is in reintegrating these individuals back into society as emotionally whole and healed individuals, carrying the tools to become self sufficient and to not fall prey to this type of exploitation again. We will provide primary and specialty medical care to those who have been rescued from bondage, and offer technical, emotional and financial support for both those doing the restoration work and those who have been rescued out of unthinkable circumstances.

Their office is in the Nashville area.  Pretty cool organization.  I love that they are involving professionals in fighting this cause.
