Operation Underground Railroad (O.U.R.) is a United States-based nonprofit organization which claims to be involved in the rescue of human trafficking and sex trafficking victims, with a special focus on children, and a wider goal of eliminating sex trafficking world-wide. The group was founded in 2013 in Salt Lake City, Utah, by Tim Ballard, a former officer of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. As of April 2020, O.U.R. claimed that they had been involved in the rescue of 3000 victims and the arrests of 182 traffickers, but these figures are highly disputed.

  • Operation Underground Railroad (O.U.R.) is a United States-based nonprofit organization which claims to be involved in the rescue of human trafficking and sex trafficking victims, with a special focus on children, and a wider goal of eliminating sex trafficking world-wide. The group was founded in 2013 in Salt Lake City, Utah, by Tim Ballard, a former officer of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

In 2020, Ballard and O.U.R. were the subjects of several media investigations that detailed Ballard's relationships with corrupt foreign government officials, his history of fabricating rescues and statistics. In October of that year, the Attorney's Office of Davis County, Utah, announced the O.U.R. and Ballard were under criminal investigation. (en)
