Cynthia E. Aulds, BS, RRT
Director of the Coalition to Combat Human Trafficking in Texas
Cynthia Aulds is the director of the Coalition to Combat Human Trafficking in Texas (CCHT). Prior to her current role, Cynthia spent 21 years in the healthcare field as a registered respiratory therapist, a clinical specialist at Texas Children's Hospital in Houston, and as a director of cardiopulmonary services at Hill Country Memorial Hospital in Fredericksburg, Texas. Cynthia worked as both a respiratory therapist and part-time missions minister at Sugar Land Baptist Church before taking on role full time in 2013. There, she was a member of the group who started CCHT in 2015.
“My work as missions minister involved anti-human trafficking efforts in Houston. I had no idea human trafficking existed, much less to the extent that it does. The more I learned, and the more I saw how prevalent trafficking is throughout Texas, from the smallest of towns to the largest metropolitan areas, the more I felt my passion changing to focusing my efforts on bringing awareness and education to others to help combat this horrific industry,” she said.
