What did you think? We'd love to hear your thoughts.
In this episode Brenton is joined by Freedom Drivers Project Specialist Micah Larsen, from the nonprofit organization Truckers Against Trafficking (TAT). Since 2009 TAT has worked to partner with truck drivers, bus drivers and other transportation industry workers to educate and inspire drivers to help combat the problem of human trafficking. In our discussion Micah shares some startling statistics about the problem, and share several things drivers can do in their unique roles to help combat trafficking and ultimately, to potentially save lives. There are over 50M trafficking victims worldwide but Micah encourages us to think about this as a problem in our own backyard. Please listen to this important conversation.
If you think you see the signs of human trafficking please call the anonymous National Human Trafficking Hotline: 1-888-373-7888
