Verdict: Evidence needed: cohort sizes, follow-up methodology and duration, and independent evaluation. Evidence located: a 0% figure with no published cohort data.
“0% Re-trafficking rate across the 2018–2024 completed aftercare cohorts” — marici.org (aftercare.html, research.html) [source] [archived]
What the archive shows
research.html (archived 11 June 2026) states a “0% Re-trafficking rate across the 2018–2024 completed aftercare cohorts”; aftercare.html (archived the same day) displays “RE-TRAFFICKING RATE 0%” alongside “HOMES 9 · ACROSS 5 CITIES” and “CAPACITY 340 SURVIVORS.” Neither page publishes a cohort size, a follow-up method, or an evaluation source.
What would substantiate this
- The size of each completed cohort
- The follow-up method used to determine re-trafficking status, and its duration
- A definition of what counts as a “completed” cohort
- Independent evaluation by a named academic or clinical partner
Two facts, stated side by side
Marici’s IRS Form 990 record, filed under its founding name Take Her Back, reports 0 employees for tax year 2017 and total expenses of $10,163 that year; the record also reports 0 employees for tax year 2020. The re-trafficking figure is claimed for cohorts completed from 2018. No conclusion is drawn here from placing these two facts together.
