1. Prevention & Awareness
Through multimedia and in-person presentations, we warn the public of the root cause of sexual exploitation and the breakdown of the nuclear family.
In 2023, JBM trained 75,000 students, parents, and teachers on the methods used by predators in person. Taking proactive measures saves children before they need to be rescued.
Our team appeared in
105 interviews with 255M impressions.
On social media alone,
JBM reached over 30M impressions.
Renewal at the Border made a MASSIVE wave in bringing hope and prayer to our law enforcement & fellow Texans.
Our southern border mission trip allowed volunteers to be the hands and feet of Jesus by delivering meals and praying for Texas law enforcement.
JBM released our newest documentary feature film, “SEX NATION,” and hosted an incredible movie premiere!
JBM equipped our community with knowledge and activation. We believe it's time for the body of Christ to shine the light and be the remnant! The film is a deep dive into the moral fall of America and how we can be activated in restoring our nation.
Watch SEX NATION or host a watch party.
2. Training & Research
JBM provides training and creates custom protocol to identify trafficking for small businesses, churches, first responders, schools, communities, and legislators.
For example, training a small business and creating custom anti-trafficking protocol led to two most-wanted arrests of known predators in Texas.
In 2023, JBM trained over
60,000 students, first responders, AGs, FBI, Sheriffs, and PD.
JBM training impacted:
100+ nations through the United Nations Assembly.
3. Rescue Support
JBM shares intel, aids in search and rescue operations, and provides resources for survivors and safe houses.
A survivor testimony: “I hope that the traffickers can’t hide any more and that the truth is revealed - God is doing it through you. Most days I feel like it’s hopeless, but since Jaco and his team, I feel the most hope I’ve ever experienced.” ~ Anonymous survivor
In 2023 alone,
JBM raised $4.5 million for the anti-trafficking community.
LIVES SAVED:
JBM rescued and placed 18 survivors in safe houses.

4. Legislation & Policy
JBM works to get bills passed that prevent sexual exploitation and trafficking.
Our team tracked 387 bills in 15 states, supported 83, wrote 6, and helped pass 14. For example: Texas HB 900 and Indiana HB 1447 removed sexually exploitive material from schools. HB 1001 defunded the Kinsey Institute - the modern day leader in sexual abuse material (CSAM).
Our bill HB3702 passed in Oklahoma last year. This model legislation takes explicit content out of public schools and libraries - holding teachers accountable. Our bill gave Governor Stitt cause to remove PBS out of the state of Oklahoma for showing explicit content to children in 2023.
