Lassen Family Services want to remind everyone that January is Human Trafficking Awareness Month. Did you know that human trafficking is one of the fastest-growing criminal enterprises globally, generating a staggering $150 billion a year? It is a modern form of slavery and affects vulnerable populations worldwide.
A common misconception is that human trafficking requires crossing borders. In reality, it can happen anywhere, even within a single country, by using force, fraud, or coercion for forced labor or sexual exploitation.
Together, let’s raise awareness and stand against this violation of basic human rights. Join us in the fight to put an end to human trafficking this month and beyond.
