Since 2006, More Too Life Foundation, (MTL), also known as Living Above The Noise (LATN), has transformed lives by empowering “victims to survivors, survivors to thrivers, and thrivers into champions.” The organization addresses root causes of trafficking, offers targeted support to homeless victims, and creates demand prevention programs specifically designed to reach men, boys, buyers, and violators.

More Too Life’s innovative approach combines data-driven solutions, personalized care, and community education, supporting survivors in building resilient, self-reflective lives. Led by founder Dr. Brook Bello, a survivor and activist, MTL advocates for systemic change by challenging community norms and working in partnership with state, federal, and nonprofit organizations.

Michael Marcotte, Board member at More Too Life, said: “Human trafficking is a critical societal issue that demands urgent action. I am honored to support MTL in its mission to protect and empower survivors. Addressing these horrors requires unwavering commitment, and I am dedicated to advancing MTL’s vital work. Sexual predators have become highly adept at targeting our youth, and we must stay ten steps ahead with advanced cybersecurity, digital identity expertise, and cutting-edge technology.”

Dr. Brook Bello, Founding CEO at More Too Life, added: “At More Too Life, we are committed not only to saving lives but to building brighter futures. Michael’s expertise in leadership, cybersecurity, and digital identity will be invaluable in advancing our mission to protect vulnerable populations and raise public awareness about trafficking prevention. We are also excited to leverage his extensive network with global C-Suite and government leaders, recognizing that this issue transcends borders.”
