Crespi Carmelite Highs School celebrated human rights day by observing a moment of reflection and prayer. The reflection began after daily announcements. Each class watched a short a video depicting the global issues of human trafficking. After the video, teachers shared the following statistics with the students. The victims of human trafficking in the United States are young children, teenagers, men and women. Approximately 800,000 to 900,000 victims annually are trafficked across international borders worldwide, and between 14,500 and 17,500 of those victims are trafficked into the U.S., according to the U.S. Department of State. Victims of human trafficking are subjected to force, fraud, or coercion, for the purpose of sexual exploitation or forced labor. After the statics were read, the whole school joined together to pray for all the victims of human trafficking.
