Bringing Human Trafficking education to the forefront of Florida

CLEARWATER, Fla. - EntSun -- United for Human Rights' Florida chapter welcomes a new member as the Anti-Human Trafficking Educator for all their awareness and outreach on the human trafficking front. To schedule an event or educational seminar on the topic of human trafficking, contact Partnersfl@humanrights.com.

In 2006, human trafficking was considered a $32-billion a year industry. By 2017 that number increased by 300% to 150-billion dollars a year. To put that into perspective, in 2020 Apple made $64 billion in revenue, Amazon made $19.2 billion in revenue and Exxon made $14.3 billion. Combine all three and that is what human trafficking brings in each year.

Further, Florida is ranked as having the third most reports of human trafficking in America. It's the second largest criminal industry in the world behind drugs.

"To combat such an immense problem, you need to focus on the demand. If the demand decreases, the supply will decrease. That's why we focus on educating people on what human trafficking is," said Cristian Vargas, the Executive Director of United for Human Rights Florida chapter. "By reaching children with this knowledge, we empower them to make the right choices and to help their peers who may be in danger of being trafficked."
