why it's important:

Any injustice should be important to everyone. Human trafficking is something that honestly sickens me and I am appalled that even will law against this in place it still happens. People are being manipulated to believe in a better life and then slaved into labor or the sex trade. Ending slavery should be always important.

the plan of action:

I started CCAT, Campus Coalition Against trafficking, and besides the many that have joined there is great interest in the organization from not only students but faculty as well. We have had an awareness event that brought many members and informed many others about human trafficking. We are having another large conference with 3 speakers to describe what is human trafficking, why is there such a demand, and our own police to explain the training they are now going through for it and how to look for it. That is explained in the form below. Also in the spring we will be run 2 major fundraising events. A pledge walk/run and a play I wrote with testimonies from trafficked people. That will be preformed by our members and Montclair State University students.

how you can get involved:

Other can help by either donating to CCAT or coming to our events. Support is most important to fight against human trafficking.
