What Reset180 does

Reset180 is a Christian 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (EIN 47-1749414) headquartered in Reston, Virginia, that combats human trafficking through three integrated service pillars: Prevent (community education to stop trafficking before it starts), Disrupt (outreach and prayer efforts that intervene in active situations), and Restore (crisis response, referrals, and long-term accompaniment of survivors).

It operates from a single Reston office, delivers programming through van tours, speaker requests, and a calendar of community events, and serves the Commonwealth of Virginia and the broader United States.

The organization is not a technology company and sells no commercial software, hardware, or fee-based services. Programmatic offerings include a Crisis Response Pre-Assessment, survivor referrals, shelter mentoring (credentialed through The Samaritan Women's ISC Training Badge), and original research such as the Illicit Massage Business (IMB) Lived Experience Survey conducted in partnership with The Network, which interviewed 67 Chinese-speaking women with histories in the U.S. illicit massage industry. Reset180 publishes an annual Impact Report and maintains a WordPress website, email newsletter, and social profiles to recruit volunteers, donors, speakers, and partner organizations.

Reset180's revenue model is donation-based. Funding is sourced primarily from individual donors — including a recurring 'Abolitionist' monthly giving program at $30/month — and from churches. Donations are accepted online, by text ('reset180' to 50155), by check, and via stock and vehicle donations. The organization is governed by a faith-affirming board and a small staff of 1–10 employees supported by volunteers recruited through the website. It is not venture-backed, has no funding rounds, operates without a parent company, and holds GuideStar and Spur Local verified-seal listings that support donor credibility.
