Slavery & Human Trafficking Prevention Month: Join the Fight!

January 11th, 2022

 
 
There are an estimated 40 million victims of human trafficking and slavery today. Human trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery and occurs when a trafficker uses force, fraud or coercion to control another person for the purpose of engaging in commercial sex acts or soliciting labor or services against his/her will.
 
Take time to learn more, then take action throughout the month of January, designated in the U.S. as national slavery & human trafficking prevention month.
