Kwami Adoboe-Herrera is an anti-trafficking advocate, a consultant and a speaker. As a survivor himself, he understands the unfortunate impact of human trafficking around us. His lived experience guided his career and interests to support policies that help support victims as they navigate life after experiencing trafficking. Kwami was featured in a documentary called Break the Chain. The film provides a detailed look at how trafficking goes unnoticed within our backyards.
Break the Chain was developed to provide an accurate and educational entertainment resource that can be utilized in training and community awareness events throughout the United States.
Kwami is currently a Board member of Not for Sale: One Step at a Time, an organization that brings awareness and hope to this hardly seen issue in communities across Ohio, America, and around the world. He was appointed by President Trump on December 22, 2020 to serve on United States Advisory Council on Human Trafficking. The United States Advisory Council on Human Trafficking, was established by the Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act (JVTA), enacted on May 29, 2015, to provide a formal platform for trafficking survivors to advise and make recommendations on federal anti-trafficking policies to the President’s Inter-agency Task Force to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons (PITF).
Kwami’s goals include raising awareness, reducing the risk of victimization, educating members of the government and the general public, and advocating for victim protection and wellness. Kwami received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Education from Walsh University. His ultimate goal is to work for the Department of Justice as an FBI agent to rescue victims from their trafficker. With the help of God, the movement will defeat this heinous crime against human life.
