National Human Trafficking Awareness & Prevention Month is an initiative of ECPAT-USA, an association of travel and entertainment companies that seeks to protect every child’s basic human right to grow up free from the threat of sexual exploitation and trafficking.
The primary objectives of this organization and the month are to:
1) Advocate for federal and state legislation that prevents exploitation, protects children, and guarantees that any child who is subjected to sexual slavery or sex trafficking will not be prosecuted in the courts for prostitution.
2) Promote corporate responsibility among private companies with a strong focus on the tourism sector.
3) Educate first responders and ordinary citizens about this issue so that they can identify victims and join us in the fight to better protect children.
4) Empower youth to take the lead against human trafficking by equipping them with the knowledge and tools necessary to help them become activists against this terrible trade.
