Human trafficking and modern slavery still exist in our world today. Today, February 13, is a day set aside to raise awareness of this issue and as a call to action for people to get involved in the fight to end these forms of modern slavery.

“If anything is wrong, slavery is wrong.” -Abraham Lincoln
