Our Mission
Justice. Mercy. Humility. Action.
Ground Zero Operations is not another awareness campaign. We are a tactical response team built by professionals and dedicated civilians committed to direct action. When victims of human trafficking need extraction, when disasters strike and lives hang in the balance, when search and rescue missions require immediate action—we deploy.
Guided by Matthew 25:40, we serve the least of these through direct action—rescuing the exploited, recovering the lost, and providing relief to the desperate. Our team consists of experienced professionals with backgrounds in military service, law enforcement, emergency medicine, crisis response, and civilian expertise.
