President Barack Obama has declared this month to be national human trafficking prevention month. Wednesday, January 11 has been declared by Congress as the nataional awareness day for this unportant issue. One sign that our president is aware of an issue so dear to God's heart...
"President Obama wrote in a Proclamation 'President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation - a document that reaffirmed the noble goals of equality and freedom for all that lie at the heart of what it means to live in America. In the years since, we have tirelessly pursued the realization and protection of these essential principles. Yet, despite our successes, thousands of individuals living in the United States and still more abroad suffer in silence under the intolerable yoke of modern slavery.'
Here are some websites that can help you be aware and act. Polaris Project knows the signs and put the hotline number in your cell phone 1-888-373-7888. People can find out how many slaves they employ at Slavery Footprint. Faith based Communities can pray for the end of human trafficking weekly. Don’t buy any form of sex, pornography, prostitution."
