There are over 27 million people in slavery today.
Human trafficking is the modern-day slave trade, and it is currently the fastest growing global criminal industry.
Join us this Thursday to learn more about these issues and what you can do to help bring modern day slavery to an end.
This event will feature a speaker from the International Justice Mission, Kaign Christy, Regional Director of Operations for Southeast Asia for the International Justice Mission. Mr. Christy will be speaking about the mission and activities of IJM, an international human rights agency that secures justice for victims of slavery, sexual exploitation and other forms of violent oppression.
