The IBSSA Board of Directors, in association with KDI Protective Services, a division of Karl de la Guerra, Inc. is pleased to announce the launch of our first International anti-Human Trafficking Project.
Under the leadership of Mr. Karl DelaGuerra – Country Representative of IBSSA for the USA – the Team KDI has assembled an elite team of subject matter experts, based in Charlotte, North Carolina, to provide global assistance in countering Human Trafficking, a crime recognized to be at an epidemic level within our society.

The anti-Human Trafficking team possesses the following expertise:
– Law Enforcement
– Private Security
– Private Investigations
– Community Relations
– Accounting (Certified Fraud Examiner)
– Legal
– Training & Curriculum Development
– Emergency Medicine
– Mental Health
– Information Technology

The mission statement of this elite team covers three primary areas in which they will operate: Education, Identification and Collaboration.
Globally, Human Trafficking has estimated annual revenue of $32 billion, or about $87 million a day. Law enforcement authorities, government agencies and others say that human trafficking is tied with arms dealing as the world’s second-largest criminal enterprise. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the lead agency in trafficking investigations in the United States, has estimated that 800,000 people are trafficked into sex and forced-labour situations throughout the world every year.
This project operates as a portal for all IBSSA members in the area of anti-Human Trafficking. “Our goal is to serve as a focal point for IBSSA members who wish to report suspicious acts or incidents of Human Trafficking.” – says Mr. DelaGuerra. He continues, “Our team is connected to an international network of agencies. We will access the information, then pass it along to private and/or public sector agencies, who will receive the reported information for further action. We will also provide vital education on this topic to organizations and community groups within our reach.”
