As we reach the end of #NHTAM2021, it's important to acknowledge that while #humantrafficking can happen to anyone in any community, some populations are more vulnerable. According to @Polaris_Project, People of Color & LGBTQ+ folks are more likely to be trafficked. #NHTAM #JLJC

Public perception of what trafficking looks like often conjures up images of a white van & a violent, sudden kidnapping. This is one of the most pervasive myths of trafficking. According to @Polaris_Project, most traffickers use psychological means.https://t.co/UChxkI29Wv #NHTAM
