YOU Campaign - What are YOU Thinking?

Quotes for this Week:

“First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, and then you win.”
― Mahatma Gandhi


“[T]hat old September feeling, left over from school days, of summer passing, vacation nearly done, obligations gathering, books and football in the air ... Another fall, another turned page: there was something of jubilee in that annual autumnal beginning, as if last year's mistakes had been wiped clean by summer.”
― Wallace Stegner, Angle of Repose 

 Wow! What a whirlwind of a new year and so much to be done so let us begin and also continue  our preparation for victory!

ARE YOU READY TO END MODERN DAY SLAVERY!

Well there are a number of things that we can do. But for this blog I want for you to email some of those things you think are important, with links to your site and so on.  Below,  our comment section for just that purpose, yet they are not made public until we view, so, I will simply pull from there and use the ones that appeal to the broader spectrum. The following questions are related to all facets around the issue of Human Trafficking, such as: Family, community, law enforcement, legislation, politics, policy, victims resources, housing - all of it.

• I will finish the blog after getting a beat with what you need and/or are frustrated about?

•  I would also like to know your thoughts on PSH (Permanent Supportive Housing). Being that H.U.D is no longer funding or very little emergency or temporary housing, but rather PSH, what do you think this  effect will have on all forms of Human Trafficking Victims and needs?

•  What do you think is needed the most to battle HT?

•  What would you like to see changed?

•  I would also like your take on the super bowl and how you think about it's effect on Human Trafficking, if any at all?

   

  I will be writing on the following statement and wonder what YOU think: 

  A proposed policy by international human rights organization Amnesty International calls for the legalization of prostitution worldwide. “Criminalization of sex work prevents people from exercising their human rights,” states a December 2013 news briefing from Amnesty International UK. “It is…based on a naïve view of sex workers as victims which denies the possibility that they have made a legitimate choice in engaging in this work. It is a mistake to believe that all sex work is a form of forced labor.”      Hmmmmmm...
