These are some of my favorite videos to share at abolitionist presentations. They clearly show the impact of trafficking in the United States, how law enforcement is working to combat it and what you can do to help. It's happening here and we should all be aware and on the lookout.
Remember, if you suspect human trafficking is happening in your area, REPORT IT. Simply call or email the national hotline below.

All of the videos are good. Now to have every state get the PSA's on the airwaves with either the national or a local hotline #.
ReplyDeleteI thinks that's a great goal to have. A personalized state PSA would be best, but maybe there could be a national PSA with the national hotline tweaked to have state information included to it for each state.
ReplyDeleteMaybe there's already a PSA like that available, but I don't know about.
This can be also a fairly beneficial writing that any of us absolutely beloved considering. Possibly not on a daily basis which often experience the likelihood to get a solution. Hot Party Tampa strippers
