MASIE was founded in 2001 by an escapee and rehabilitated survivor of sexual trafficking. Chong Kim founded MASIE in the response to the sexual exploitation, torture and the business of human trafficking she had experienced firsthand.
MINORITIES AND SURVIVORS IMPROVING EMPOWERMENT Subsequently MASIE was created to both organize and support victims of human trafficking and empower this constituency to end sexual trafficking.
MASIE’s vision is to: Actuate victims of sexual trafficking and exploitation, organized with their allies to promote an end to structural violence. In 2003 the organization has filed its incorporation documents and strengthen the capacity of the organization to function. We will initiate an expanded constituency organizing process, incorporating two strategies:
- identify escaped and still entrapped survivors of sexual trafficking;
- organize and empower survivors as a healing and increasingly powerful constituency base to end sexual trafficking and violence.
