| January is Human Trafficking Awareness Month - Marcela's Story |
|
Human trafficking is a global issue. Although this crime crosses all age, economic, cultural, gender, sexual orientation, racial, and social lines, traffickers often target persons in situations of vulnerability. We must refrain from passing judgment and offer compassion and help to persons in need.
Know the signs.
Know the steps.
Know the resources.
Marcela's story serves as a reminder of how powerful and transformative each one of our roles is in our collective effort to respond to human trafficking in our communities.
