Trafficking here in Sweet Home Alabama

Human trafficking is a business where people become the commodities that are traded and sold. It is a horrible reality to numerous men,women and children within the United States and around the world.

Over half of the victims of human trafficking are children.

This excerpt from "sold," an anti-human trafficking documentary, sheds some light on human trafficking and some issues associated with it.




Ok, so now we see trafficking is happening, but here in "sweet home Alabama?" Unfortuntately, the answer is yes. The following is an article about a 12 year old victim of human trafficking recently discovered right here in Homewood, AL. Although he was discovered, countless others are still enslaved.
