The Issue: Human Trafficking


Human trafficking is the third largest criminal industry in the world. The trafficking of persons for sexual exploitation or forced labor is a grievous violation of the dignity of the human person and is a form of modern day slavery. Trafficking is one of the most difficult crimes to prosecute and most insidious problem to solve.


We pledge to:

Utilize and encourage the work of the Dominican Coordinating Committee to
end Human Trafficking;
Develop and encourage local educational workshops on trafficking;
Continue to work to create and pass state legislation on trafficking;
Connect with national and international organizations.



Things you can do:

Monitor your own state's legislation around human trafficking, make sure that laws are current. Use the link to the Polaris Project to learn more.

Respond to action alerts offered by justice promoters when they are called.
