iSanctuary is a 501c3 nonprofit organization which serves survivors of human trafficking, both internationally and domestically. In India, iSanctuary trains and employs women rescued from trafficking through the skill of jewelry-making. The women are able to produce jewelry and make double the Indian fair trade wage doing so. In the US, iSanctuary has developed a program called POST (Professional Opportunities for Survivors of Trafficking), which is a job-readiness training program for survivors rescued from the United States. Through the program, they are able to gain the valuable skills they need to be able to get a full time job elsewhere. "We were grateful to be able to highlight the work we're doing with survivors rescued locally. The opportunities for local collaborations and partnerships presented themselves as well at B4B. We'll look forward to attending next year!" said Dailey.
