How To Get Involved
-
Make the issue known: educate yourself and others about sex trafficking and raise awareness.
-
Start small: focus on spheres in which you have the most influence; family, friends, coworkers, etc.
-
Collect funds for the cause: You can raise money to go towards efforts to rescue victims from brothels, prosecute perpatrators, and for victim aftercare.
-
Get your local government involved: You can write to you senators to get involved in the issue. Your representatives can take your concerns to a higher level.
