Community Awareness
Outreach
Educating the public about human trafficking is essential to ending modern day slavery. Each month multiple teams of trained volunteers distribute posters of missing minors known or suspected of being in the area to hotels, bus stations, first responders, and local businesses in high risk locations throughout Dallas and the surrounding cities. Each team consists of at least one of the following: an experienced team leader, a driver, a data collector, and a prayer warrior.
We currently have community outreach teams in Carrollton, Dallas, Denton, Frisco, Mansfield, Mesquite, Rockwall, Sherman/Denison and South Carolina
Prerequisites:
- Community Awareness Outreach Training
Waiver of Liability
Intel
These volunteers enter information, such as vehicle makes and models, that is gathered by the data collectors during our Saturday outreaches. Information like this is used to help private investigators and detectives track perpetrators and find their victims. These tasks can be performed from home at a volunteer’s convenience.

Internet Surveillance
The Poiema Foundation closely partners with 4theONE Foundation in internet surveillance. Information that is collected on outreach and entered by our data entry team is used by volunteers trained by 4theOne to perform in-depth data collecting using internet searches and social media. 4theOne staff conducts information searches using the latest technology to further the group’s efforts in locating missing individuals that are suspected to or are known to have been lured into the sex industry. This team also uses data given to 4theOne by referrals, concerned family members, and/or the public. All information gathered during any participation in this ministry is given by 4theOne to police detectives and/or private investigators to aid in missing person and criminal investigations.
