Ben Owen recently sat down with Shawn Ryan on The Shawn Ryan Show to highlight the critical mission of We Fight Monsters, the nonprofit he co-founded with his wife, Jessica. During the episode, Ryan praised the organization's multifaceted approach, noting they are "working at the intersection of anti-trafficking efforts, community violence intervention, re-entry support, and survivor housing."
Beyond the nonprofit, Shawn Ryan emphasized how Owen's technical background feeds directly into these rescue missions. Owen also serves as the CEO of Once American, a digital forensics firm whose Intel Foundry platform supports federal partners in "OSINT targeting and counter-trafficking operations." This unique tech-forward posture allows the group to execute highly targeted interventions.
Looking ahead, the integration of digital forensics and community-level support is positioning We Fight Monsters as a unique model in the NGO space. By combining technical intelligence with direct survivor housing, Owen's network plans to expand its law enforcement partnerships and scale its re-entry initiatives through the end of the year.
