We will direct our efforts, resources, and energy toward the eradication of sexual exploitation, with an emphasis on the sexual exploitation of children. Whether they’re victims of trafficking, forced prostitution, online enticement, or child pornography—our mission is to end all sex crimes by targeting the DEMAND side of sexual exploitation. (Demand = Predator)
In 2004, the Founders of The Demand Project—Jason and Kristin Weis, were living in Colorado with their beautiful family in what seemed to be the perfect world. One seemingly ordinary night, while watching the news, a headline story would forever grip their hearts and change the course of their lives forever. The story they heard that night, which victims will now share with you, is horrific, yet it, unfortunately, tells the story of too many children. This story is responsible for Jason and Kristin’s decision to change their lives drastically.
The story on the news that night was that of a father, who had raped his three-year-old daughter, videotaped his brutal crime, downloaded it onto the internet, and, if that isn’t devastating enough—thousands of people logged on to watch!
That was a monumental moment for this couple, wondering, “How can we continue our safe life when so many children live in this torture?” They decided right then and there to dedicate their lives to eradicating child sexual exploitation.
Jason, Kristin, and their children moved from their homes, family, and friends to get trained up to fight in this battle for freedom. They have never looked back and continue to look forward to a world where children do not have to live enslaved by sexual perversion.
