Mayor Curry recognizes Rethreaded during Human Trafficking Prevention Month
Jacksonville’s Mayor and First Lady, Lenny and Molly Curry, recognized Rethreaded for its continued work to raise awareness about human trafficking. Mayor Curry and his wife presented a proclamation to Rethreaded founder, Kristin Keen, in recognition of Human Trafficking Prevention Month, Rethreaded’s work with survivors of human trafficking in Jacksonville, and revealed details about an exciting and new educational art project.
“Organizations like Rethreaded are putting in the work to help support survivors heal and thrive in our community. The dedication of the staff here at Rethreaded cannot be understated for the direct impact it has in Jacksonville,” said Curry. “We must continue to set the example of educating our community members to be able to recognize the signs of potential trafficking and know the right ways to act.”
Since hiring its first full-time employee in 2012, Rethreaded has employed over 74 women who are survivors of human trafficking. “Our mission is to employ, train, and reignite hope for 500 local survivors by the year 2031,” Kristin Keen said.
