德州律师基金会拨款11,100美元：支持幸存者亲述的人口贩运培训走进一线
位于德克萨斯州塔兰特县 Euless 市的非营利机构 Room To Care, Inc. 获德州律师基金会 11,100 美元拨款。这笔为期一年的拨款自 2026 年 10 月 16 日起算，支持其旗舰教育项目《Through Their Eyes》的人口贩运意识培训剪辑能力建设，提供设备与软件，让由幸存者亲身讲述的培训抵达德州酒店业、医疗与执法一线工作者。
《Through Their Eyes》按纪录片标准制作，围绕自愿在镜头前分享经历的幸存者展开。目前拍摄仍在继续，已录访谈的后期制作已经开始，但老旧设备严重拖慢了进度；这笔拨款提供的剪辑工具，将把这些访谈做成面向一线工作者的培训。
Room To Care 创始人兼执行主任 Scott Burch 表示：「许多人心里有一幅『人口贩运长什么样』的图景，这幅图景反而让他们在酒店前台、在诊室里、在出警时认不出它。」他表示：「人口贩运这样困难的议题，值得以同理心来讲授——既为了分享经历的幸存者，也为了向他们学习的人。我们相信，直接听幸存者讲述能改变那幅图景，改变人们会留意到的东西。德州律师基金会的支持给了我们把这些故事讲好的工具，我们感谢他们的信任。」
该机构表示，现有的人口贩运培训多采用动画、幻灯配音或脚本化情景剧形式，《Through Their Eyes》则以真实声音为核心，目标是让培训真正留在观看者心里。
德州律师基金会自 1965 年成立以来，已向法律相关项目拨款逾 3,200 万美元，由德克萨斯州律师协会会员支持资助，是全美规模最大的慈善资助型律师基金会。Room To Care 是一家总部位于 Euless 的 501(c)(3) 非营利机构，以纪录片与教育叙事处理剥削、不平等与人际关系等议题，人口贩运意识是其首个项目领域。（来源：德州律师基金会）
Texas Bar Foundation Awards $11,100 Grant: Survivor-Informed Trafficking Training for Frontline Workers
Room To Care, Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Euless, Tarrant County, Texas, has received an $11,100 grant from the Texas Bar Foundation. The one-year grant, which began October 16, 2026, supports the Through Their Eyes Trafficking Awareness Editing Capacity project, providing equipment and software so survivor-informed human trafficking training can reach Texas hospitality, healthcare, and law enforcement workers.
Through Their Eyes is Room To Care's flagship educational program, being produced to documentary film standards and built around survivors who have chosen to share their stories on camera. Filming continues and post-production has begun on recorded interviews, but aging equipment has slowed that work considerably; the grant provides the editing tools needed to turn those interviews into training for frontline workers.
"Many people carry a picture of what trafficking looks like that keeps them from recognizing it at a hotel front desk, in an exam room, or on a call," said Scott Burch, Founder and Executive Director of Room To Care. "Difficult topics like human trafficking deserve to be taught with empathy, both for the survivors who share their experiences and for the people learning from them. We believe hearing directly from survivors can change that picture, and change what people notice. The Texas Bar Foundation's support gives us the tools to tell those stories well, and we're grateful for their trust."
Existing trafficking training often relies on animation, slide-and-voiceover formats, or scripted dramatizations, the organization said; Through Their Eyes is being built around real voices instead, with the goal of training that stays with the people who watch it.
Since its inception in 1965, the Texas Bar Foundation has awarded more than $32 million in grants to law-related programs. Supported by members of the State Bar of Texas, it is the nation's largest charitably-funded bar foundation. Room To Care takes on human issues including exploitation, inequality, and relationships through documentary filmmaking and educational storytelling, with human trafficking awareness as its first program area.
