Protecting children through prevention and community.

who we are

A Trusted Voice for Atlanta’s Families

We exist to prevent sex trafficking, equip youth for success, and strengthen families in our community. Together with local partners, we’ve served hundreds of families — and we’re just getting started.

Sharing

We openly share knowledge, resources, and real-life lessons that help families recognize risks early. By making prevention information accessible, we empower parents, caregivers, and youth to stay informed and protect one another.

Community

We create safe, welcoming spaces where families can connect, find support, and feel like they belong. Our events and programs are built to strengthen relationships and remind every family they are not alone.

Responsibilities

We believe prevention is a shared responsibility. We encourage families and youth to take an active role in safety—learning warning signs, speaking up, and using the tools available to them before harm happens.

How We Support Children & Families

We help prevent child exploitation by educating, equipping, and empowering youth and the families who support them. 

Every child deserves to be free from exploitation, surrounded by support, and equipped to thrive.

At The Chosen Ones, we serve Atlanta and surrounding Georgia communities by protecting boys and girls through prevention, strengthening families with knowledge and resources, and creating safe, joyful spaces where children can grow with hope, confidence, and security.

Prevention & Safety Education

We provide families with clear, practical guidance to help protect children from trafficking, abuse, and exploitation. Through workshops, school-based support, and conversations built into our community events, The Chosen Ones teaches parents, caregivers, and youth how to recognize warning signs, set healthy boundaries, and take action early. Our goal is to equip every family with the knowledge and confidence needed to keep their children safe.

youth empowerment

We create spaces where children and teens feel heard, valued, and safe. Through positive experiences, caring adults, and age-appropriate conversations, we help young people understand their worth, trust their instincts, and speak up when something doesn’t feel right—so they are better protected from trafficking, abuse, and exploitation.

Join on our journey

We partner with schools, churches, nonprofits, and local organizations across Atlanta and surrounding areas to reach more families and strengthen the safety net around every child.
