We’re closing in on the end of the National Human Trafficking Prevention Month.

If you haven’t already, tweet any news about modern-day slavery with the hashtag “#endslavery”. You can link to our Slavery Map, which shows the extent of slavery in all the regions of the world.

Through her love, I began to find stability, healing, and a sense of personal freedom.”
