January is National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month. Openforce is raising awareness in partnership with Truckers Against Trafficking (TAT), a non-profit organization that is raising up a mobile army of transportation professionals to assist law enforcement in the recognition and reporting of human trafficking, to aid in the recovery of victims and the arrest of their perpetrators.
In this powerful episode, host Nick Hancock interviews Liz Williamson, TAT training specialist, and trafficking survivor. They discuss:
- New training opportunities available with TAT
- Liz’s story, what familial trafficking is and how to spot it
- Why kindness matters in bringing humanity back to victims
- How truckers, couriers, delivery drivers, home assembly technicians, and home health aides are uniquely positioned to spot human trafficking activity – and what we can do about it that could potentially save a life.
We’re calling on ALL Openforcers to get TAT certified! This free, online training takes less than 30 minutes and can potentially liberate trafficked victims. Sign up here: https://education.truckersagainsttrafficking.org/openforce/

**If you suspect human trafficking activity at your location, please call the National Human Trafficking Hotline immediately at 1-888-373-7888 to report what you know. Your call can remain anonymous.**
