Human Trafficking Awareness Training
Are you worried about the prevalence of human trafficking in your local area? Are you looking for ways to help and protect the children in your community from becoming victims? Then watch these human trafficking awareness videos from the last summit on human trafficking!
These videos give you the most up-to-date local data from police and FBI reports about trafficking in your area, as well as powerful stories and insider facts from girls who have been rescued. The videos also expose how traffickers recruit and get kids involved in trafficking, so that you can be aware of any warning signs.
Parents are especially encouraged to watch the videos as they provide key safety tips that both parents and children should know, as well as proven strategies for starting a conversation with them about how to stay safe. Plus, the videos give you useful resources for getting involved and helping those girls recovering from human trafficking right here in your own community.
These training videos are an important step forward in raising awareness of human trafficking and taking action against it. The goal is to give you the tools and information necessary to protect yourself and those around you, while also knowing how to recognize warning signs when they appear.
