Audrey Baedke brings 20 years experience in the issues of human trafficking and commercial sexual exploitation to the table as our new Director of SAFE (as of April 2025). We are grateful for her wisdom and practical experience in the anti-trafficking movement in Washington state, as well as her ability to bring together diverse stakeholders to achieve great things together.
Many great people and organizations have partnered with SAFE and the list is growing daily. We know the criminal network behind sexual exploitation is vast, diverse, and well-organized, and we must be the same if we are going to fight it. We applaud each of the following SAFE partners for stepping into the fight and believing with us that we can have a state free of commercial sexual exploitation.
