Be vigilant.

The best defense against modern-day slavery is a vigilant public. Be a nosey neighbor. We usually find out about these situations because a member of the public sees something odd and speaks up. If you know of a situation that doesn’t seem right, please call us at 1-202-234-9382 x244.

Lend Your Skills.

If you have a talent or skill that you can impart, please talk to local organizations that work with trafficked individuals. People are interested in all sorts of skill sets from literacy, English , or acting classes to computer skills and basic banking 101. Lend your expertise.
