Human trafficking is a hidden crisis that can touch any community. At 31:8 Project, our mission is to equip and challenge society to proactively address this urgent issue. As a community-driven nonprofit, we empower people to recognize and respond by educating, advocating, and raising awareness through dynamic workshops, regional summits, and customized presentations. We also walk alongside survivors, amplifying their strength through our Survivor Mentorship program, and bring comfort and hope to at-risk youth with Bravery Backpacks filled with necessities – addressing the immediate physical and emotional needs of children rescued from harm. Everyone has a role to play: join us in this mission. Contact 31:8 Project today to learn more or schedule a customized presentation, and help build a community where dignity, hope, and freedom prevail.
31:8 Project invites experts, survivors, advocates, and practitioners to apply to present at the 6th Annual Bakken Human Trafficking Summit, May 19–20, 2026, in Bismarck, ND. As North Dakota’s leading educational summit on human trafficking and related issues, we anticipate 400+ attendees from diverse sectors. If you bring expertise in prevention, survivor support, law enforcement, community outreach, or related fields, we encourage you to apply and share your insights. Presenters will have opportunities to lead sessions, join panels, and connect with fellow changemakers.
