Today is Human Trafficking Awareness Day. Let’s take a moment to remember the millions of individuals who are currently suffering in modern slavery. Human trafficking is a heinous crime that can happen anywhere, to anyone. It’s important to be aware of the warning signs and to know what to do if you suspect someone may be a victim. Some red flags include:
- Individuals who are not free to come and go as they please
- Evidence of physical abuse or injuries
- Lack of personal possessions or identification
- Fearful or anxious behavior
- Inability to speak for themselves or give personal information
- Living and working in poor conditions
Let’s all do our part to raise awareness and fight against human trafficking. If you suspect someone may be a victim, please reach out to the National Human Trafficking Hotline at 1-888-373-7888 or text “HELP” to 233733. Together, we can make a difference.
