Trafficking on the Rise
Submitted by Monica Schultz
Some sobering statistics about Human Trafficking. The average age of entry into prostitution for a child victim in the United States is 13-14 years old. 90% of runaways become part of the sex trade business and most are coerced within 72 hours of running away. Human trafficking generates $9.5 billion yearly in the United States.
