HEMAD campaign raises awareness of human trafficking
MADISON, Wis. — A campaign to end human trafficking is asking for thousands of men to take a public stand.
The Human Trafficking Educators Working with Men and Boys to Stand Against the Demand campaign is looking for 75,000 men to take a pledge against human trafficking and commercial sexual exploitation.
In 2018, 3,000 men took the pledge; that number grew to nearly 60,000 in 2020 and 2021.
“I ask that you take the pledge seriously, that you take it for all of those who have suffered at the hands of human traffickers and for all those who that we hope to save from trafficking,” Madison Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway said at an event in the city Monday.
2022 marks the campaign's fifth year.
