WEBPAGE: 
HUMAN TRAFFICKING AND SUPER BOWL XIV

 
The  Super Bowl attracts hundreds of thousands of fans and tourists to the host city over two weeks, making it one of the largest public events on the national calendar.  But it also attracts a sector of criminal activity that operates in the shadows, that includes Human Trafficking, often trapping at-risk youth in the illegal sex trade.
 
Promoting Human Trafficking awareness, especially during a national event such as the Super Bowl, allows for widespread attention to be paid to the issue. However, the problem of human trafficking will not end with the Super Bowl; it is not a one time, one event, cause.
 
There are many avenues of approach that our communities – homes, schools, law enforcement agencies, and advocacy groups – can take to make it a priority to break this cycle of crime and exploitation.
 
TAKE ACTION NOW!
