Get updates on The Network’s latest research, partnerships, and resources as we work to dismantle the illicit massage industry.
Landlord Engagement Program (LEP)
We work with local property owners and managers to identify and remove illicit massage businesses operating within commercial spaces. Through education, outreach, and strategic guidance, LEP addresses trafficking at the infrastructure level, making it harder for IMBs to secure and maintain the physical spaces they need to operate.

Community Engagement
We work with local stakeholders—including property owners, survivor support organizations, and community leaders—to increase awareness of illicit massage businesses and strengthen coordinated responses.
These efforts help create environments where trafficking operations are identified, reported, and addressed more quickly.

Strategic Code Enforcement (SCE)
Strategic Code Enforcement helps jurisdictions use existing regulatory structures to disrupt illicit massage businesses. This approach identifies loopholes, strengthens enforcement pathways, and equips local stakeholders with practical tools to take action. In many cases, SCE does not require creating entirely new systems; it uses what already exists more strategically.

Research & Data
We maintain the nation’s most comprehensive database on illicit massage businesses, continuously tracking storefront activity, locations, and operational trends across the country.
This actionable intelligence allows us to identify where the industry is concentrated, how it evolves, and where intervention will have the greatest impact. We produce data-driven insights that inform enforcement, policy, prevention, and public understanding.
From local law enforcement agencies to academic researchers, we leverage our data to support coordinated action against the illicit massage industry.
