An interfaith group of individuals looking for ways to combat human trafficking established Attacking Trafficking in 2010. The group began with an outreach by members of St. Alban's Episcopal Church in Davenport who identified and contacted members of the Catholic Diocese of Iowa. The organization became a 501 (c)(3) in 2014. The current organization has members from many denominations and backgrounds. All are grounded in their common belief that trafficking of persons is a heinous crime against humanity. Our board meets monthly, as does the community group.
