ABOUT US
End Exploitation Montana's mission is to extend human dignity through ending all forms of sexual exploitation. We honor and uphold the inherent value of all human beings and believe people are meant to be loved, not used or abused.
Our goals are to educate and empower individuals and families, and to create a culture of dignity.
The misuse of technology facilitates all forms of sexual exploitation, including sex trafficking, child on child harmful sexual behavior, sextortion, and sexual abuse. Prevention begins with education, so one of our highest objectives is to educate our youth on how to make healthy media choices. We offer resources and education on media use for parents, students, and advocates. Parents who strategically incorporate technology into their family can empower their kids to make safe choices online.
