Program Director

Andrea Graver Andrea Graver is a wife, a mom to 3 teenagers, and a lover of oat milk lattes! She first learned about the intersection of sexual exploitation with the crime of human trafficking in 2016 at an Abolition Summit in Kansas City, MO. It was there that she discovered a passion for outreach and a dream to restore dignity to those who have been devastated by the commercial sex industry. In 2018 she founded a massage parlor outreach in the city of Tulsa, and in 2019 founded the nonprofit, Defending Dignity. Within the first year of outreach, seven massage parlors closed, and a network of traffickers was taken down. In 2020, she met Sarah-Jane Vegas and learned that they shared a similar vision of creating a safe place for survivors of exploitation and trafficking to heal and restore their lives. In 2021 the two joined forces and Andrea became the Program Director for Stand 4 Justice Movement.
