National Human Trafficking Awareness Day – Wednesday, January 11, 2024

Wear Blue on #WearBlueDay in recognition of National Human Trafficking Awareness Day !

The goal of the human trafficking program was to raise awareness and educate the community on how Human Trafficking is impacting Charlotte and the global community. IAI partnered with US Western District Office, Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department (CMPD) and NC Commission of Human Trafficking, Present Age Ministries, and survivors of Human Trafficking to bring awareness and share a call to action to eradicate this heinous crime. The transcontinental virtual program discussed the various types of Human Trafficking (e.g. Sex trafficking, Labor trafficking, Force, Fraud and Coercion). We also researched and shared two Human Trafficking videos on Human Trafficking Awareness Day to ensure that we were addressing different types of Human Trafficking to reach the goals and objectives of the program.
