Grooming doesn’t begin with danger; it begins with trust.
Traffickers know that attention feels good, especially to someone who feels unseen or alone. They offer compliments, gifts, or affection — not threats.
That’s what makes grooming so dangerous. It feels safe until it isn’t.
By the time control and manipulation appear, the victim often feels emotionally attached or dependent.

💬 Talk to youth about how real love doesn’t come with pressure or secrets.
💡 Awareness is protection.

That’s why we created RAISE - Antidote to Human Trafficking , a survivor-led prevention curriculum that equips youth with the knowledge and skills to stay safe, build healthy relationships, and recognize manipulation before it escalates.

It’s easy to imagine trafficking as something distant or rare.
But the reality is that it often happens behind ordinary doors, homes, motels, and businesses that look just like any other.

Victims are hidden in plain sight, trapped by manipulation and fear.
Every neighborhood deserves to be safe. Every person deserves freedom.

From the outside, grooming can look obvious. People often ask, “Why don’t they see it?” But for the person being groomed, it doesn’t feel like danger it feels like safety, love, and acceptance. That false sense of care is what makes grooming so effective and so hard to recognize until it’s too late.

That’s why we created RAISE - Antidote to Human Trafficking , a survivor-led prevention curriculum that equips youth with the knowledge and skills to stay safe, build healthy relationships, and recognize manipulation before it escalates.

Traffickers don’t always begin with threats. Sometimes, they begin with what looks like love. They may say things like, “You’re my everything. I’ll take care of you.” But this isn’t real love, it is manipulation designed to isolate, control, and exploit.

To a victim, it can feel like affection. To a trafficker, it is simply another weapon to use. Real love doesn’t demand secrecy, and real love doesn’t hurt. Talking with young people about what healthy love looks like is one of the best ways to protect them.

A retired investment banker was arrested Friday at his Connecticut home on federal charges he trafficked women for s*x acts in luxury hotels and at a Manhattan apartment converted into a s*x dungeon with B**M equipment, according to a federal indictment.

Howie Rubin, 70, and his former personal assistant, Jennifer Powers, 45, are charged with s*x trafficking and transportation for the purposes of prostitution, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York.

"For many years, Howard Rubin and Jennifer Powers allegedly spent at least one million dollars to finance the commercial s*xual torture of multiple women via a national trafficking network," FBI Assistant Director in Charge Christopher Raia said in a statement. "The defendants allegedly exploited Rubin’s status to ensnare their prospective victims and forced them to endure unthinkable physical trauma before silencing any outcries with threats of legal recourse."

According to the criminal charges, from at least 2009 through 2019, Rubin recruited dozens of women to engage in commercial s*x acts with him involving bo***ge, discipline, dominance, submission and sadomasochism.

"During many such encounters, Rubin engaged in conduct beyond the scope of the women's consent," the indictment said.

The indictment includes ten women, identified as Jane Does #1 through #10, who allege Rubin "brutalized" them, causing them to fear for their safety and resulting in significant pain or injuries, which at times required women to seek medical attention.

It doesn’t always look like danger lurking in the shadows, sometimes it starts with a “friend” online, a trusted adult at school, or even someone inside a friend group.

Traffickers use familiarity and trust to break down defenses. That’s why teaching youth how grooming works is one of the most powerful ways to fight trafficking. Together, we can protect them before it starts.

That’s why we created RAISE - Antidote to Human Trafficking , a survivor-led prevention curriculum that equips youth with the knowledge and skills to stay safe, build healthy relationships, and recognize manipulation before it escalates.

Traffickers don’t always start with threats or violence, sometimes, they start with what looks like love. They shower victims with attention, promises, and affection, only to twist that “love” into control, fear, and dependency.
This is called grooming, and it’s one of the most powerful tactics traffickers use to trap victims.

The founder of a defunct California-based p**n website was sentenced to 27 years in federal prison on Monday for s*x trafficking.
Michael James Pratt, a native of New Zealand, founded the now-defunct GirlsDoPorn website in San Diego.

He was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Janis Sammartino to 27 years in federal prison for one charge of s*x trafficking and one count of conspiracy to commit s*x trafficking.

Pratt and his co-defendants used false modeling offers to recruit women, many of whom were teenagers, and then allegedly plied them with alcohol and ma*****na before having them sign contracts they were not allowed to read.

Some victims also claimed they were s*xually assaulted and held against their will.

In a civil lawsuit filed in 2019, 22 women claimed they were victimized by fraud and breach of contract.

A judge ruled in favor of the women in 2020 and issued a $12.7 million judgment against Pratt and two co-defendants, Matthew Isaac Wolfe and Ruben Andre Garcia.

Garcia was sentenced to 20 years, Wolfe to 14 years, and cameraman Theodore Gyi to four years.

September 2025: Pratt was sentenced to 27 years in federal prison.
