Grand Island Area Coalition on Trafficking

GI-ACT was formed in 2018, comprised of law enforcement, non-profit organizations, educators, community volunteers, and churches.

Our mission is to coordinate efforts as community partners, educate and raise awareness about human trafficking.

General meetings are held bi-monthly to discuss and plan education and events to raise awareness about Human Trafficking in the Heartland.

For information on how to attend, or to contact us, please contact grandislandact@gmail.com.

While Heartland United Way serves as the fiscal agent for Grand Island Area Coalition on Trafficking, GI-ACT is not a United Way program. All questions should be directed grandislandact@gmail.com.
