February 22, 2021 is National Human Trafficking Awareness Day in Canada. This day is meant to bring into focus the devastation that human trafficking imposes on its victims and the people who love them; to raise awareness, and to give those agencies who can help the support they need.
The Region of Peel has Anti-Human Trafficking Service provider table, representing 40 agencies.
There are so many levels to being saved from this crime that a victim could enter or exit this situation through a variety of organizations, the police, Caledon/Dufferin Victim Services and many more.
A Caledon Councillor told the Citizen, “Often the victims don’t even realize the extent to which they are being involved.”
