Love Justice International (LJI), formerly Tiny Hands International, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to combating social injustice.

Love Justice was established in 2005 and is based in Lincoln, Nebraska.

Programs[]

Children[]

Through a child sponsorship program, Love Justice International currently operates 17 family-like children’s homes for over 200 orphaned and abandoned children in South Asia.

Education[]

In 2015 Love Justice established a K-12 school located in South Asia. The school provides education for over 150 children in this region.

Human trafficking[]

Love Justice developed a strategy called “transit monitoring and interception.” The strategy is to attack trafficking while it is in the process of occurring and before exploitation and enslavement. The staff operate what are called Transit Monitoring Stations located at border crossings, bus stations, train stations, and airports, and they look for signs of human trafficking. There are currently 57 Active Transit Monitoring Stations globally.

Monitoring: Our trained staff look for trafficking “red flags” at transit stations and border crossings.

Interception: We intercept and protect the vulnerable to prevent them from being trafficked.

Follow-up: We educate those we intercept about trafficking and safe foreign employment. We help prosecute traffickers.

Love Justice currently operates in 19 countries throughout Asia and Africa, and they have intercepted over 25,000 people who were at risk of human trafficking.

Data collection[]

Love Justice International acquires detailed data from each trafficking victim. This information is then uploaded into a database that is used to help better understand and fight trafficking networks around the world.

Through intelligence-led investigations, Love Justice collaborates with local police and uses this detailed and actionable data to arrest, prosecute, and convict traffickers. Their efforts have resulted in over 1000 convictions of traffickers around the world, in addition to numerous active cases seeking prosecution and conviction.

History[]

Love Justice International, formerly Tiny Hands International, was established in 2005 by a group of graduates from Taylor University. Based in Lincoln, Nebraska, this nonprofit organization focuses on helping orphaned and abandoned street children in South Asia and combating human trafficking around the world.

Initially, Love Justice focused their efforts on helping orphaned and abandoned children in South Asia by providing stable homes and education. In 2015, Love Justice opened a K-12 school for children in South Asia.

In 2006, the organization piloted its first border monitoring station. Over time, this work has expanded to over 200 staff members stationed at multiple transit stations in 17 countries around the world.

Finances[]

Tiny Hands is accredited by the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability.
