Human trafficking is the exploitation of another person for labor, domestic servitude, or commercial sexual activity by force, fraud, or coercion. It is also the act of enslaving or exploiting unwilling other people. Unfortunately, slavery in some form has existed for hundreds of years – and persistently exists today, though many are unaware of this fact. Its numbers are second only to the drug trade. There are approximately 20 to 40 million slaves in the world. In the United States, NC consistently lands in the top 10 of states with the highest rate of human trafficking.
