Frank Barnaba created one of the country's first Street Outreach Programs back in 1980. Twenty-seven years later, Mr. Barnaba is still involved in outreach and has a small group of dedicated staff and volunteers that set foot on the streets of Hunts Point, New York offering support, care and resources to prostituted and trafficked victims.

The Institute's Outreach Team is currently planning on expanding outreach services to cities in Connecticut that have prostitution-related activities. However, we rely on individual donations to support Outreach costs. The staff and volunteers of the Barnaba Institute appreciate your generosity.

Here is an example of what your dollars can do to support the Outreach Team:

$25 can provide snacks and water to trafficked victims for one Outreach visit

$40 enables Outreach staff to give phone cards to clients to use in an emergency

$75 allows Outreach staff to purchase several fast-food gift certificates for clients 
       who would otherwise go without food for days
