NATIONAL HUMAN TRAFFICKING PREVENTION MONTH
January 2025 is National Human Trafficking Prevention Month, as decreed by presidential proclamation.
About the month
January is also known as Human Trafficking Awareness Month. It is a key time for us all as individuals to educate ourselves about human trafficking and crucially to learn to spot the signs of trafficking. It is also a time for us take these messages to our workplaces, our churches, our schools, our representatives and everywhere else.
At Hope for Justice, we investigate cases of human trafficking and work closely with law enforcement to rescue victims and ensure evidence is gathered against perpetrators to see them brought to justice. Our team of investigators is drawn from some of the most respected and prestigious law enforcement agencies in the country, such as the FBI and NCIS.
National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month, January 2025, culminates in the annual observation of National Freedom Day on February 1, 2025.

Use both hands – make a fist with one hand and show five fingers on the other. Then, ask someone to take a photo and share this on social media. This is a symbol to show you’re standing up for the 50 million people in modern slavery. We’re encouraging you to share the image with the hashtag #ForThe50
