Not On My Watch: As the World Cup comes to KC, human trafficking risks soar. Join us--learn, act, and help protect our city from this evil!
About this Event

Not On My Watch is a Heartland Convergence Initiative—a united front of ministries and leaders determined to bring reformation and transformation to the Heartland Region.


We are passionate about protecting our region from human trafficking. As the World Cup comes to Kansas City, we know trafficking risks will soar. Now is the moment for God’s people to rise up and declare: Not on our watch!
Join us for a powerful, action-focused anti-trafficking symposium featuring leading voices like Heidi Olson (pediatric forensic nurse and anti-trafficking trainer), Stacie Lareou (founder of the Be Alert prevention program), Ginny Rucker (Value Unconditional, providing free services to women and families impacted by trauma), Joy Marie Chamberlain (Freedom’s Bridge, coordinates with local nonprofits to support trafficking survivors), Stephanie Evans (Exodus Cry, WARS Council Mobilization prayer), Lucy Bloom (Altus, legislative advocate and survivor leader), Shelley Lowery (Beyond My Borders, International rescue and trades schools), and Tom Stayman (Impact Ministries International, building safe houses supported by community businesses).
This day will equip you not just with knowledge, but with real opportunities to engage, serve, and make Kansas City safer. Now is the time to act—to draw a line in the sand and boldly proclaim: The children and adults of Kansas City are not for sale!
Stand with us. Get involved. Let’s make a difference—together. Not on our watch!
