TX Operations Volunteer

A21 Volunteer OpportunityAt A21, we are fueled by radical hope—the kind that refuses to accept that slavery is someone else's problem. We believe that freedom is possible, and we work every day to make that belief a reality. We are a global nonprofit organization on a mission to abolish slavery everywhere, forever. For more than 17 years, we've assisted people from human trafficking and walked with them through the journey of restoration. We stand on the frontlines, not just to fight for justice—but to build a world where every person is free.This role offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience across Reach, Recover, and Restore functions within the A21 Campaign in Texas. Individuals will develop practical skills in partnership engagement, research, event coordination, and survivor-centered care while working alongside experienced staff to combat human slavery.
