Be a light for justice
ALIGHT uses an app (think: Lyft) to match human trafficking survivors to the right attorney at the right time. We mobilize the legal community to unlock a fresh start for survivors.
What can we do about human trafficking?
Even after survivors of human trafficking escape, many still have enduring legal problems. Debt. Identity theft. Arrests for crimes they were forced to commit by their trafficker.
ALIGHT provides a way to connect survivors to specialized, free legal services. We use tech to create a marketplace that connects survivor needs (demand) to expertise (supply) – fast.
Now survivors can secure jobs and rebuild lives for themselves and their families. Join us. Break the cycle to unlock a fresh start for survivors.
