OPERATION GUARDIAN

Protecting children, empowering law enforcement, and restoring hope. This is the mission of Operation Guardian.

​

By partnering directly with law enforcement agencies, Operation Guardian deploys Special Operations veterans, law enforcement professionals, intelligence analysts, and civilian volunteers equipped with advanced surveillance technology and mission-critical resources. 

 

This unique force-multiplying model has already led to dozens of arrests in Arizona and is now expanding into priority regions across the United States. 

 

Beyond field operations, Operation Guardian provides advanced training to law enforcement and is developing a comprehensive rehabilitation program for survivors of trafficking. 

 

Our mission is simple: protect the vulnerable, stop predators in real time, and build safer communities nationwide.

Chandler (AZ) Police Department

Operation “Easter Egg” was a multi-agency effort led by the Chandler (AZ) Police Department. Darkhorse Benefits supplied highly skilled Operation Guardian personnel, equipment, planning, communications and other capabilities used by Special Operations Forces (SOF) that translate to civil Law Enforcement. Darkhorse Benefits was an important part of the Joint Task Force’s arrest of 7 suspects for various sex crimes against children. 

NATIONWIDE EXPANSION

Following our significant success working with law enforcement agencies in Arizona and other localities, Operation Guardian is now expanding into priority regions across the United States.

 

Each region requires both general funding and per-mission support through direct donations, and/or in-kind contributions (equipment, lodging, travel, media).

Operation Guardian is a frontline initiative of Darkhorse Benefits, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization dedicated to creating lasting impact for America’s Special Operations Forces (SOF) community and beyond.

 

Built on the unmatched skills of former special operations warriors, pilots, intelligence analysts, law enforcement veterans, and civilian volunteers, Operation Guardian delivers critical support to law enforcement in the fight against child exploitation and human trafficking.
