My concern is that there are thousands of child-oriented charities who may be trafficking and they will of course be missed in the first rounds. So, even if a great effort is made to combat trafficking, we will be co-existing with them for a long time. And we have seen that some federal state and county enforcement agencies are compromised.
We have to develop some kind of local citizens board or group that oversees all of these. Someone who has no ties to funding or existing organizations, but has some power. Not exactly sure what this would look like. I can see if it involves direct contact with children it also would be an in for pedophiles.
Maybe these groups need to be unofficial and off the radar. Not sure, but there will need to be some uncompromised oversight.
