January is National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month.
“There are plenty of awareness months and days dedicated to various causes. Some get a lot of attention; some pass by relatively unnoticed. People in slavery deserve attention. They deserve to have a voice. And you have a powerful one through your social media.” Paula Cornell – Love Justice
This quote was from a recent blog post on the Love Justice website, where you can read stories of real people whose monitors prevented them from completing their slavery journey.
It is estimated that 50 million people are trapped in slavery today. This often happens when people are offered an opportunity they can’t refuse.
In this episode, I will talk to Briony Fickling, who works for Love Justice as Regional Steward for Southern African countries.
She will share her journey working with Love Justice as they work to:
- Step in during critical moments between freedom and slavery.
- Prevent the next victim from being trafficked
- Put Traffickers in jail
- Share the love & hope of Jesus
