Human Trafficking and Slavery Prevention Proclamations to City Mayors
Each year January is National Human Trafficking (HT) and Slavery Prevention Month. AAUW Iowa has a Human Trafficking Task Force committed to addressing strategies to educate, create awareness, advocate, and take action on this issue.
A Proclamation will be presented by our members and signed by the mayor in their cities to designate January as Human Trafficking and Slavery Prevention Month. The Iowa Network Against Human Trafficking and Slavery, the largest, all-volunteer organization in Iowa has shared this with us. NAHT’s work along with many other organizations, institutions, religious groups, legislators, law enforcement, businesses, and individuals are committed to eradicating human trafficking.
The proclamation appears below:
