EN: January is National Human Trafficking Awareness Month. There are more than 25 million estimated victims of human trafficking worldwide. Every country is affected, including the United States. We pray for an end to the abomination that is human trafficking and pray for the dignity of all to be upheld and especially for the most vulnerable. How can you get more involved in the fight to end human trafficking?
 Learn about St. Josephine Bakhita, the Church’s inspiration of hope and resilience for victims of trafficking.
 Watch a movie on the topic and hold a discussion with friends, peers, family members or parish group.
 Organize a supply drive for vulnerable people who live in shelters or safe houses. Find an organization near your area and gather volunteers and supplies!
 Donate to national organizations that help victims of human trafficking. #EndHumanTrafficking
