Abstract:

Prevention and Intervention: Combating Human Trafficking Through the Trucking Industry
Speaker: Kendis Paris, Truckers Against Trafficking
Meeting Room 200/201

NATSO and the trucking industry are among several groups within transportation, including Amtrak and the airlines, working to put an end to human trafficking—which victimizes between 100,000 and 300,000 young people each year.  Attendees at the session will learn how Truckers Against Trafficking is working to educate, equip, empower and mobilize members of the trucking industry to combat this crime as part of their regular jobs, and the unique difference truckstop operators also can make.
