Would you recognize human trafficking if you saw it?
Human Trafficking is an insidious crime. Although it is frequently depicted in the news, movies, and social media, it is often misunderstood. It happens in our neighborhoods and in our communities every day, often unnoticed. The best way you can help is by becoming aware. You can stop sex trafficking.
What can you do?
We have created a training series just for you! In this series, we hope to help you understand what human trafficking is and whom it affects. You will learn how to “See it” in our very own communities; you will learn how to “Say it” by discovering the proper channels of reporting; we will also discuss how to “Stop it” to put an end to the suffering of God’s children; and finally, we will cover how each of us should respond so that we can reach one more.
