 "Every country in the world is affected by human trafficking, whether as a country of origin, transit, or destination for victims. Children make up almost a third of all human trafficking victims worldwide, according to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime Global Report on Trafficking in Persons. Additionally, women and girls comprise 71 per cent of human trafficking victims, the report states."
I researched human trafficking for a small thread of this story. Trafficking is in our communities, and it's appalling. Though Tackling the Fields deals with tough issues, it is a clean story--a story of grace and healing, so don't be afraid to read it. It's free on Amazon July 30th to bring awareness. Amazon
