January is National Human Trafficking Awareness and Prevention Month, a vital time to spread awareness and renew our dedication to ending all forms of exploitation. And Jan. 11 is recognized as National Human Trafficking Awareness Day. For nearly 30 years, ECPAT-USA has been leading the charge to prevent this crime before it happens. Join the movement and help us build a bright future for children by safeguarding them from exploitation.
