"People whom I have spoken with are
constantly surprised that human trafficking happens in their cities, but they
are willing to learn more about it and bring awareness to this issue. I think
that in realizing that domestic human trafficking happens closer to home,
people will take more ownership of this problem and acknowledge that it is NOT
OK. The campaign is a way that we can rally people toward this goal."
–Esther Liew
“From the suburbs of Illinois to the streets of
Uganda, human trafficking is a global issue that touches communities and
individuals across the globe. I support this cause because the
denial of basic and inherent human rights to individuals and groups is
a tragedy, which this campaign seeks to change. By raising awareness new
groups can join with old to mobilize against this vastly growing issue and
contribute to the global movement against human trafficking.” – Alyse Shields
“I support the HTIOP campaign because of its’ potential to bring people together on an issue that cuts across race, gender, and faith to recognize a social problem within our own communities and work with one another to do something about it. To take part and have an active role in a locally grown campaign that is a unifying force on a human issue is quite unique and frankly, awesome.” – Aatifa Sadiq
