Today we discuss the very devastating and horrific subject of human trafficking. We dive in deep to bring forth a greater understanding and awareness of what human trafficking is, on what level it exists today, and how it can affect anyone, regardless of their socioeconomic status.

 

Special guest, Bianca Morales-Egan of PCI Global, joins us today to shine a light on some of the misconceptions of human trafficking. She shares how we can increase our awareness to not only identify any red flags, but also educate our vulnerable youth to prevent them from falling victims to human trafficking.
