Enough.

Helping young people move beyond exploitation to safety and self-sufficiency

Enough.

Sexual exploitation and trafficking affect thousands of young people across Minnesota—and the impact lasts long after the crisis ends. At the Y, we believe every young person should have the chance to feel safe, supported, and seen.

Enough

The Enough. program helps youth 28 and under in the Twin Cities area who are at risk of—or already experiencing—sexual violence, exploitation, or trafficking. Enough. empowers young people to heal, build stability, and reclaim their sense of self.

“Minneapolis is one of the top locations in the U.S. for child sex trafficking…About 40% of trafficking cases involve minors, and over 50% of exploited adults were first trafficked as children.”

- Office of the MN Attorney General
