Prevent
Stop exploitation before it starts. Intelligence-led early identification of trafficking patterns and networks before they reach full operation.

THE WORLD SEES STATISTICS. I SEE NAMES.

Rescue is only the beginning. Real success means prevention, intervention, restoration, and creating opportunities for survivors to rebuild their future. That is why I founded ATB.

Endorsed By
Leaders who stand with us.
I have worked alongside Fernando in the fight against human trafficking for two years. He is a man of unwavering integrity and exceptional courage. His professionalism is consistently demonstrated by the standard of excellence he upholds in every operation.
After transitioning to civilian life, I sought a meaningful way to serve again and found it with the Anti-Trafficking Bureau. The team's unwavering dedication to protecting the vulnerable has been nothing short of inspiring.
His knowledge, skill, and experience not just in anti-human trafficking, but in tactical, operational, and strategic operations is incredible. One of the most dedicated people I have had the privilege to know.
I am honored to stand alongside the Anti-Trafficking Bureau and support its mission to combat human trafficking through education, prevention, intervention, and survivor support. What sets ATB apart is its commitment to turning awareness into action - equipping communities, supporting law enforcement, protecting the vulnerable, and empowering survivors.

"He's the real deal."
Lewis Herms
2026 California Gubernatorial Candidate
"I've been doing this for six or seven years now, and I've interviewed several organizations that claim they're taking care of children. I've met several of them, and I rarely ask anybody to donate to one because I've had trouble fully vetting what they say they do. Sometimes the numbers don't add up, or something just doesn't mesh. I asked Fernando to send me a bunch of information so I could vet the organization. I don't put my name on the line for anything I don't trust. Fernando sent me a great deal of information, and I've completely vetted it. Guys, he's the real deal. He has a very large team that you'll never see, along with a very small team that handles the administration. He's not wasting your money, folks. If you really want to help children, I don't currently know a better place where you can feel safe about what they're doing than ATB."

"I want more warriors like that."
"Brother Fernando is an operator himself, and he's been in this fight for at least 10 years, that I know of. He's a bad motor scooter, man. That guy is something else."

"He is legit."
"They're doing incredible work down here. We had lunch with them, learned about what they're doing, and, man, I love this guy and I love his team."
