Overview

Mission

TNT Hand Up empowers women and children to end generational cycles of poverty abuse and provides the hand up they need to create lives they can be proud of for future generations to come. As an organization we dont believe in bandaids but are instead partnering with institutions specialists and providers to approach the blight of human trafficking through an institutional lens of change. Our current focus is in developing the first comprehensive database to track human trafficking in the State of Nevada and to use our findings to strengthen existing programs through law enforcement and nonprofit partners.

What it reported doing in 2025

Lux is the working name of our software which is the Latin word for light. Wed like to use our soon-to-be-developed database and resulting research to shine a light on the best practices across the continuum of care; which include a view into prevention law enforcement metrics therapeutic programs and tracked recidivism rates. We are in Research & Development phase of this project.
