Glendene Grant (born 1957) is the founder of Mothers Against Trafficking in Humans.[1] She hosts an internet radio show on BlogTalkRadio through Dreamcatchers for Abused Children, and has hosted such guests as Member of Parliament Joy Smith and Bobby Brown of Dog the Bounty Hunter fame.[2] She lives in Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada.[3] She had a common-law marriage with Dwight Foster, but they separated.[4] Grant's and Foster's daughter Jessie Foster disappeared in the Las Vegas Valley in Nevada, United States in 2006.[5] The last time that Grant saw her daughter was Christmas 2005.[6] Grant believes that Jessie became an unwilling victim of human trafficking,[7] and that Jessie thereby became a sexual slave.[8] Grant therefore created almost a dozen websites advertising the disappearance of her daughter.[9] In an effort to find her daughter, Grant has gotten in touch with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, bounty hunters, prostitutes, police officers, psychics, and private investigators.[10]
