Protect Us Kids Foundation is a nonprofit organization founded in 2008 with a global mission to advocate human trafficking awareness and provide resources and tools for youth within rural, underserved and marginalized populations; to include developing critical targeted research of Online Commercial Sexual Exploitation (OCSE) against youth within this demographic globally. Leveraging deep expertise within cybersecurity, research, intelligence, and analysis (to include strategic partnerships in support of the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)/ Machine Learning (ML), and data science/data analytics), Protect us Kids Foundation strives to make a global impact through advocacy, research, and practical approaches towards contributing to meaningful solutions that will dramatically reverse the rising rate of OCSE of youth that reside within rural, underserved and marginalized communities. In support of our mission, Protect Us Kids Foundation has the following key contributing goals: -Promote cybersecurity awareness within the communities that we serve, to ensure that access to viable mental health, technology and cybersecurity resources are readily available at all times. -Formally engage with humanitarian organizations, corporations, and international governments, to work collectively towards addressing the continued liability and legal challenges in human trafficking prevention in cyberspace and the effects of globalization and forced servitude. -Support the establishment of innovative, yet ethically sound, data governance measures that serve to protect and maintain the privacy of exploited youth online.
